Meet USC

To learn more about USC, our academic programs and how to present yourself as a strong candidate for graduate study, visit us through one of our on- or off-campus programs, or through one of our webinars. Our Self-Guided Tour will allow you to explore campus on your own time and at your own pace.

Applying to graduate school at USC involves thoughtfully presenting your academic qualifications and personal attributes to a very specific audience: your intended graduate program. Although we do our best to make this process as easy and straightforward as possible, many prospective students have questions and concerns as they begin their application, particularly if this is their first time applying to a graduate-level program.

Our Spotlight: USC program aims to help attendees effectively navigate the USC graduate application process. If you want to learn how to successfully complete USC’s online graduate application, avoid common mistakes (and possible delays), and make the strongest presentation possible to your prospective USC graduate program, Spotlight: USC is for you.

Attendees will also learn about the mission and vision of the University of Southern California, have the opportunity to ask general questions related to the application and admission process, and get answers from a representative of the USC Office of Graduate Admission.

Please note that Spotlight: USC is offered only in the fall and is not available during the spring or summer. 

Dates & Registration

All Spotlight: USC programs take place on Fridays from 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. Learn more and Register here.
