Not getting into USC is a bummer. There is no way around it, but if you were banking on Southern California next year, it is time to make a new plan. You still have time; it just takes a little determination and some work. USC’s early action round is still a relatively new policy. 2022-2023 was the first application cycle they even offered an early option, so there isn’t a ton of data about it.
