Application Deadline
- Deadline for application: November 15

- Transcripts should be sent to USC by March 15, but you can send them earlier if you want. They must be sent directly from the institution to us, not through a portal or third party service such as Parchment or Credentials Inc. The name of your high school will appear on transcripts when they are first submitted; however, once grades are posted in mid-September, we will update our files with your final transcript information. Please forward any documents that have not been received by this time directly from your institution (we accept electronic transcripts).
All materials should be emailed to admissions@usc.edu and include full name along with applicant ID number (if applicable) on all documents. If you’re unable to email us directly because of technical difficulties or lack of access due to financial hardship please contact 844-721-4111 for assistance with uploading required documents online at www.applywebcamodelesbiangirlscom/uscscholarships
