Undergraduate Admission Application Updates

For fall 2023, USC Admission added an Early Action (EA) option for first-year applicants. The application deadline was November 1, 2022. EA is non-binding, so admitted students have until May 1, 2023 to accept their offers of admission. Decision letters were released on January 20.

January 15, 2023 is the Regular Decision (RD) application deadline. Applicants not admitted through EA will be fully considered for admission in the RD pool. Decision notifications will be released in late March 2023.

The transfer application deadline is February 15, 2023.

The Annenberg writing sample is no longer required.
