Financial Aid Deadlines and Instructions/Paying for USC
Interested in financial aid? If yes, you should apply for financial aid soon after you apply for admission.

Supplemental Application Deadlines
Some departments require supplemental applications with deadlines different from those listed above. See Additional Requirements for Selected Majors for information on your intended program.

Spring Admission
While we do not accept applications for spring admission, we do consider all fall applicants for a place in the class entering in the spring semester, which begins in January. Transfer students admitted to the spring semester may be asked to complete additional course work before enrolling.

When will you hear from us?
All freshman applicants who submit a complete application by the deadline will be mailed an admission decision by April 1. All transfer applicants who submit a complete application by the deadline will be mailed an admission decision or a request for spring semester grades by June 1. USC does not have an early decision program. Only notification from the Office of Admission constitutes an offer of admission.
