Applies via Common App. Plan for the personal statement (650 words) plus whatever is below. Our standing advice: optional essays are optional in name only — write them.
We don't have this school's supplemental prompts in our library yet — check its application portal for the current list.
Scholarships: At USC the scholarship application IS the early application. The December merit deadline matters more than the regular one.
