3429Alexis MontgomeryHi Doug! I'm not sure what you mean by athletic training or game design programs, but there are majors in Human Performance (http://www.usc.edu/dept/publications/cat2011/schools/college/exsc/undergraduate.html#humanperformance) and Kinesiology (http://www.usc.edu/dept/publications/cat2011/schools/college/exsc/undergraduate.html#bs).

- 3429Hey Cameron! The Marshall School of Business gets plenty of praise on quality (http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/rankings/business-overall/spp+25), and I know quite a number of Business majors. I would argue that USC in general is really good about internship opportunities. We are known for our Trojan Family connections ;) Here is a link to available opportunities for Marshall students: http://students.marshall.usc.edu/undergrad/global-opportunities/.

- 3429Hi Keenan! Here is a link to ideas of ways to prepare for USC, or college in general: http://www.usc.edu/admission/undergraduate/prepare/prepare_grade.html. Definitely look into joining clubs and volunteering, but I stress upon quality than quantity. If possible, getting a job or even an internship looks great. You can start early in developing your talents so you can really shine when describing yourself in the admissions application. As for GPA, there isn't necessarily a cutoff and I can't predict what it will be by the time you apply. However, I would say definitely a 3.0, and if possible, 3.5 or higher. Keep in mind that all aspects of a student's profile will hold weight, not just GPA (i.e. SAT/ACT scores, courses you took, extracurricular activities, etc.). Then there is this thing called competition and a little luck :p If you are really interested in USC, I suggest you do your research now than later. By this I mean visiting the campus if you haven't, getting an idea what you want to major, etc.

- 3429Hi Samantha! I would say it depends which program you are aiming for. I have heard that the BFA track is more selective than the BA track. I would suggest getting in contact with the department: http://theatre.usc.edu/aboutus/contact-info.html.

- 3429Hi Kiara! According to the catalogue, you are allowed to take a minimum of 128 baccalaureate units at the undergraduate level. Both majors are 128 units so I'm not sure it is feasible. I suggest contacting admissions to confirm (http://cinema.usc.edu/contact/).

- 3429Hi Gavin! They really stress upon leadership and from the students I have gotten to know, I can see they have that potential. Another is what you feel makes you different. That is harder to say, but it will be your job to convey it in the application and/or in person. Everyone has a unique story, so share it!
