As we have said in many of our previous blog posts, the best way to really get to know a university and see if it is the right fit for you is to visit campus. If you haven’t been able to make it to any of our weekday programs, we have one final opportunity for you to visit campus:
On Campus Admitted Student Program
Saturday, April 25th
10am – 4pm
(See Special Parking & Directions Info Below)
Hosted by the USC Admission Office, the program is geared toward assisting you in making your final college decision. During the open house you will have the opportunity to meet several current students, take a University campus tour, attend financial aid sessions, learn about our academic programs, and more.
Engineering Information Session & #ViterbiAdmit Open House
As part of the day, the Viterbi School will be holding a special Engineering Information Session at 11:30am in Seeley G. Mudd, Room 123 (SGM 123).
Immediately following the engineering presentation, we will be hosting a #ViterbiAdmit Open House in Ronald Tutor Hall which will have many students, faculty, and staff to answer all of your questions. Here are some of the highlights:
ACADEMICS: Sit in on scheduled breakout sessions with faculty members and learn from our different professional student organizations.
RESEARCH: As engineers we have the opportunity to improve society and make a difference. Come see some of the projects our students are working on with faculty members.
DESIGN TEAMS: See how engineers are getting hands on experience outside of the classroom through their work on different design teams around Viterbi.
COMMUNITY: Learn how Viterbi students bolster their communication, leadership, and interpersonal skills through involvement in student organizations.
INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCES: Have you ever wanted to travel abroad or get international experience? Learn how Viterbi students have taken advantage of abroad opportunities as engineers.
INFORMATIONAL: Have questions about classes you will take, career opportunities, or academic advising. Get all of those questions answered at our information tables.
If you want to learn more you can take a look through the program for the #ViterbiAdmit Open House. In addition, you can RSVP for the On Campus Admitted Student Program at you.usc.edu.
If you have not attended one of our on-campus programs or if you would like the opportunity to ask any last-minute questions, we strongly encourage you to attend. We hope to see you there!
