[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are some words of wisdom from admissions from USC as posted in a CC forum. http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-southern-california/1558825-what-my-chances-usc-final-answer.html[/quote] Thanks for posting. I found this part really interesting ... [quote]* But... my dad went to USC! or But... my six uncles all met their wives at USC! or But... the last four generations of my family went to USC! Will being a legacy help? No. Legacy status is no longer considered by the admissions committee. *What?! Wait! 20% of USC's admitted freshmen are legacies? It's gotta help! Right? Not really. While ~600 freshmen sounds like a big number (approx. legacy students who attend), of the 47,000+ applicants to USC last year, a significant portion were legacies. The admitted legacies possess the same stellar qualifications listed in the first post, in addition to being legacy candidates. [/quote][/quote]
