Describe the type of student who should attend University of Southern California. Why?

Admissions decisions had just been sent out, but this year my school decided to do something a little different. They went door to door to a few lucky admitted students' homes and congratulated them with an admissions acceptance packet and balloons in our cardinal and gold spirit colors. First step to becoming a Trojan: love our colors and wear them often. I was brought to tears watching this video because it reminded me of when I got my acceptance letter from the University of Southern California. At the end of the video, this one young man who was accepted looked at the camera and said "You will not be disappointed with your decision. I am going to do big things at USC and show you that you made a great choice." A young me had said the same thing 2 years prior. The type of student who should attend USC truly wants to make a difference in their community and eventually in the world. We constantly strive to be innovative, and with what we learn in the classroom we seek out ways to incorporate it outside of the classroom. We recognize we are in an era of great social movements and we embrace each and every one, collectively. When we see someone fall, we pick them back up. When a fellow Trojan is mistreated, we come together as a community to fight against the oppression. We very much work together, fight (on) together, and play together, because at the end of the day we are the Trojan Family. So for anyone who wants to get into USC, you must embody this belief early on and feel as much a part of our family before getting admitted as you would after being admitted. For us, it doesn't matter what your background is, because when we leave this school we will go on to do great things for the world we live in.

Firstly, film students and filmmakers should aim to attend the University of Southern California. It is the number one film school in the country (and arguably the world), though being that it is not the cheapest school, applicants must be dedicated, passionate, and persistent at whatever they want to do (even if not film). As you could guess, I myself am a film student who was most recently accepted and enrolled at USC. I am absolutely stoked about being in an environment where everyone has the potential to go on and change the world with cinema. Unfortunately however, all won’t, so one must be absolutely sure that you are there to become the best.

This school is for students who are serious about their academics, but are not solely focused on school. You should be able to balance school work and having a social life. Students that are both interested and not at all interested in Greek Life will enjoy USC. You must be willing to give into the Trojan spirit and be a part of the Trojan family as it is a huge part of attending the university. You must also despise UCLA. Fight On!

An ideal student for USC is someone who values diversity, social equality, and community service. To embrace each other's uniqueness and join as a group with the shared goal of hard work and achieved success, and with the continued promise of help others who follow us. USC alumni provide networking opportunities and help each other navigate life after school.

Personally, I believe USC is for students who are willing to find things on their own and outgoing. USC is a big college with so many organizations and resources for students. Thus, it is a student's job to find anything you will benefit from.

The type of student who should attend University of Southern California is someone who wants to make the world a better place. They should have the desire to give back to their communities and others.

The type of person who becomes a Trojan is not only well-rounded in what they do, but also in who they are. Trojans are strong, determined, and dedicated people in one way or another. In my opinion, even people who feel they don't fit those characteristics still have the aptitude to become a Trojan. Just keep in mind out 5 characteristics: skillful, scholarly, courageous, faithful, ambitious. Fight on!

   The University of Southern California has developed a phenomenal online school that is an accredited Masters in Social Work program via the internet. The student who should attend this school is one who is willing to find a way to achieve their final step in their college career so they can finally start helping people. 
   Many individuals are looking for a way to finish that final step, but many are stuck by the obstacles that arise as we get older. We need more money because we are financially independent, we are starting families, car payments, insurance payments, living expenses and social issues distract us from finishing our degrees. We instead look for work to support us in the mean time, but those who attend the USC School of Social Work online are those with the drive and determination to carve out time in their busy and stressful lives to finish what the started. 
   I am grateful and proud to be a part of this program that I just started this week. So many amazing individuals of all different backgrounds, experiences, challenges and personalities are finding time in their lives to work hard, find a way to pay for school and get the degree so they can finally make a difference in their communities.
