Just went to the info session last night in OC, a lot of good information and have high hopes of getting accepted.

Just need to finish my essays..

Whoever submitted the application, any good news yet?

App submitted for Round 1. Who else is applying this round?

I applied! Hope I can get an interview at least.

Good luck!! Fingers crossed here too

Ill be applying Round 2 - GMAT is coming up here and that's all I need.

Will be applying with:

-3.22 GPA, with a huge upward trend (3.9 in business school), State school in the midwest
-79 months WE (Big 3 Auto Industry & Aerospace supply chain)

Hoping for a 650 GMAT!

Ive been to an info session and class visit, its exactly what I want. Hoping for the Mon/Wed LA Cohort

Forgot to add my stats:

- 3.45 GPA, bachelors in mechanical engineering

- 42 months WE in aerospace & defense, working in manufacturing management currently

- 640 GMAT (35 V, 44 Q)

Posted from my mobile device

Sounds like a solid profile, are you hoping for LA or OC campus??

Hoping for OC

Surprisingly, I hear OC is more competitive. I dont know how accurate that is though, I can only do LA campus, so hopefully it makes me a more appealing candidate.

It doesn’t surprise me. I imagine there is a ton of talent here that would prefer to skip the commute up to LA if at all possible. Good luck to you!

GPA: 2.7 (low due to major change)

GMAT: 680

WE: 102 weeks (I'm old)

LA Campus (saturdays)

I'm hoping I get at least an interview, been a long journey to apply for this program, life has always gotten in the way but i'm done making excuses.

Im sure you will get an interview, the GMAT is well above average and will hopefully carry your lower GPA. Also for this program Im think work exp will mean a lot.

Thanks for the words. I've honestly deterred from applying a few times due to my lack of confidence in my GPA, I felt confident after going to an info session and talking to adcom about how USC applies a "holistic approach" to choosing candidates.

Good luck to everyone and I hope we all get good news.

About to signup for a classroom visit, has anyone thought about possibly visiting the campus? (OC and LA)

GPA: 3.55 in Economics w/ minors in Math and Political Science

GMAT: 690

WE: 48 weeks

LA Campus (Monday/Wednesday)

Good luck to all!

Good luck to you! Did you apply in R1? Your profile is very competitive, I'm sure you will get good news.

I actually just talked to Nirav Mehta on the phone, Mr. Mehta is the associate director of Admissions over at the LA campus and is a great source of information regarding the program. He stated that R1 candidates are currently being reviewed, and it's a possibility that they will be contacted in a week or two.

I highly suggest contacting Mr. Mehta for a LA campus visit (if you aren't planning to join the OC campus), I will be visiting soon and hope to report back with more information.

Yes, Round 1! Appreciate the confidence haha!
