Last year about 35,753 students applied for 2,869 places in the freshman class. Approximately 24% were offered admission, and one-third of that group enrolled. Men and women apply to USC in equal numbers; most freshmen come from the top 10 percent of their high school class. USC receives applications from every state in the U.S. and almost one hundred countries, resulting in an unusually bright, talented and diverse student body.
