Admission of International Students


Admission to undergraduate programs is granted by the USC Office of Undergraduate Admission. Admission to graduate and professional programs is granted through either the Office of Graduate Admission or the dean of the professional school conferring the degree. The academic records of international applicants, both graduate and undergraduate, are evaluated by the Office of International Admission.

The University of Southern California admits qualified men and women as students regardless of race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age, handicap, sexual orientation or status as a disabled veteran. After admission, students are accorded equal rights to participate in all university-sponsored programs and activities. The university does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, handicap or status as a disabled veteran in the administration of its educational policies, scholarship and loan programs, athletics and other student activities.

Applicants with Disabilities

In compliance with the Rehabilitation Act (Section 504) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), USC offers equal access to its degree programs to academically qualified applicants with physical or learning disabilities. Non-standard administrations of college entrance examinations are considered in the admission review process along with any professional reports concerning the applicant's disability. Applicants will be expected to have demonstrated by their record in a college preparatory high school curriculum, or in an appropriate transferable college course of study, that they can perform well in a competitive academic environment. See students with disabilities section for a discussion of the accommodations USC is committed to providing to enrolled students with disabilities.

Retention of Records

Credentials submitted to the Office of Admission become the property of the university and cannot be returned to the student or duplicated for any purpose.
