Probably the most important thing you can do as an admitted student is Visit Campus! As you try to figure which university may be the right fit, it takes time deciding what you like, and where you feel the most comfortable. You will need to speak with students, faculty and administrators, see facilities, eat some food… and just soak in the atmosphere in order to really understand a campus.
We have designed each of our Admitted Student Campus Visit Programs exactly around that philosophy – and we are running programs practically every day in April….DO NOT just schedule a tour… check out all of our programs, dates, and links to RSVP for each of them after the jump….
Explore USC
This is the ultimate program – it has everything you need, and is our strongest recommendation for a campus visit. Explore USC is a full day program that gives you contact with dozens of our current students, tours of campus, financial aid sessions, opportunities to sit in on classes, a full afternoon with the Viterbi School of Engineering going over our academic programs, meeting with faculty, and facility tours. The evenings of Explore USC put you with a current students to hang out for a few hours, see the residence halls, eat dinner in a dining facility and soakup the atmosphere.

Our student organizations as well as Research and Class Projects will be on display for you to learn more about some of the details associated with the engineering curriculum.
RSVP for the On Campus Admitted Student Reception at http://USConnect.usc.edu.
We can’t wait to see you at any of the above programs! Please note that only admitted students are able to attend the above programs – and you should not plan on attending more than one. Each program is designed to be a comprehensive visit – attending two of them can be rather repetitive as well as give one less student a chance to reserve their spot for that program.
On my USConnect page, I can’t actually sign up for anything because when I click on the link for admitted student programs it usually ends in a 404, and once it gave me a javascrpit error. 🙁
I’m a spring admit, if that matters, and using a Mac (latest of Safari, Chrome, and FF4, even OS X 10.7) all give me errors. Any ideas? Thanks!
If you have already received your official admission packet – then give us a call in the office on Monday – (800) 526-3347. We can start troubleshooting if need be. Add’l heads up – there are specific programs for Spring Admits – post to come shortly…
