Review Program Deadlines Since application deadlines vary by program, be sure to confirm your intended program’s deadline so that you can apply on time.

Some programs may require you to submit only your application by the deadline. Others may require all materials to be received by that date. Please plan accordingly.

You should also use the months leading up to the deadline to complete the following steps.

Application and Admission APPLYING Complete the Online Application After you have read all instructions carefully, please complete our online graduate application for your intended program at gradadm.usc. edu/application. Please note, you may apply to no more than three programs per term. Applications to additional programs in a single term will not be considered. Please note that withdrawing an application does not reset the three-program application limit for that term.

Upload Your Transcripts/ Academic Records We strongly recommend that you upload copies of all your academic records when you submit your online application. Transcripts and other academic records can also be sent directly to USC by your school's registrar's office as hard copies or e-transcripts, per the guidelines posted on the USC Graduate Admission website.

Unofficial records, such as printouts from student online portals, that lack an official registrar's signature or seal, are not acceptable.

Note: Some departments may require that applicants have hardcopy transcripts mailed in addition

20

to uploading official copies to the online application. To verify their policy, please refer to the homepage of your intended graduate program(s) or contact them directly.

Pay Your Application Fees The non-refundable application fee is $90 for all graduate programs, except those offered by the Marshall School of Business ($155) and the International Academy’s Pre-Master’s program ($175). We accept payments

by Visa, MasterCard and Discover card.

Fee Waivers: You will be able to request a fee waiver only after you have started (but not submitted) your online application and indicated your program of interest.

Please refer to our "Fee Waivers" page at gradadm.usc.edu/feewaivers to see if you are eligible.

Provide Program Materials In addition to test scores and transcripts or academic records, most USC graduate programs require supplemental materials for admission review. These materials may include

(but are not limited to) items such as a statement of intent, recommendations, writing samples, creative portfolio, etc. Supplemental materials are reviewed by the department only, not by the Office of Graduate Admission.

Please refer to the homepage of your intended graduate department, as well as the instructions on the “Program Materials” quadrant of our online application, to verify which supplemental materials are needed and how to submit them. In most cases, they can be submitted via the online application.

Some programs may require that you submit your supplemental materials via Slideroom. You will receive instructions on our application or directly from your department if this is the case. If any materials need to be mailed, the postal address will be provided on the department website. (This is usually not the same address to which you send your transcripts or academic records.)

Please contact your intended graduate program with any questions regarding supplemental materials.

After You Apply You will receive your 10-digit USC ID number via email within two to three business days of submitting your online application. Please keep this ID on record and make sure to include it in all your communication with USC. You will also need to include it when mailing any documents to the university.

Submit Your Official Transcripts/ Academic Records You will need to have your official transcripts sent to USC, with any university seals or security features intact. If your previous studies were conducted in a language other than English, you will need to provide original-language academic records with English translations. Please note: Unofficial transcripts from university student portals are not acceptable. Please refer to our detailed guidelines at the website listed below.

Make sure to also upload copies of your university-issued transcripts (issued on official letterhead) to your online application. These copies are considered unofficial but can help speed application review. gradadm.usc.edu/transcripts

Submit Your Official GRE/GMAT Scores as Required by Your Program Some USC graduate programs require either GRE or GMAT scores.

Please review your program’s website for their test score requirements.

Make sure to include your test scores as part of your application. Once you submit your application, you will be able to return to it to add additional test scores if necessary.

Only scores received electronically from the testing service are considered official. USC does not accept self-reported test scores or paper scores sent via postal mail.

If you are sending GRE scores: USC’s ETS school code is 4852.

Use this code to ensure that USC receives your official test results.

No department code is required.

If you are sending GMAT scores: Please select “University of Southern California” from the list of schools available for official score submission. Please check with your intended program to determine the program code for the GMAT.

International Students: Submit Official English Language Test Scores International students applying to graduate programs at USC are expected to demonstrate Englishlanguage proficiency. USC does not set minimum scores for admission purposes. Scores are used for placement purposes only, to determine if an admitted student will need to take the International Student English (ISE) exam upon arrival at USC. To learn more about how to satisfy this requirement, visit gradadm.usc.edu/intl-english.

21

Track Your Application Status Our admission processing center receives a high volume of materials during the peak admission period of November through May. Please allow approximately 15 business days for your documents to be received and processed into your application file.

Graduate applicants are responsible for properly submitting all items required for review and responding promptly to requests for additional materials or information.
