How aspiring Trojans are celebrating their 2021 admission to USC
No matter where they’re from or how they found out, these potential future USC students all shared the thrill of getting their acceptance notices.
Thousands of aspiring Trojans aiming for a spot in USC’s fall 2021 entering class celebrated on March 30 when they got long-awaited acceptance emails from USC Admission. They shared their news in a way befitting the ongoing pandemic: online through social media.
Out of a record-high 70,971 applicants, 8,804 were offered coveted spots. Of these, 1,760 have parents who never went to a university — making them the first generation in their family to attend college. Some live only a few miles from the University Park Campus, while others go to school on the other side of the globe. Their common thread? The need to shriek, jump and hug their parents when they learned they were accepted to USC.
Here are a few of the ways they celebrated their 2021 acceptance into USC. If you’d like to see more, or have your own moment to share, use the #IGotIntoUSC hashtag on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and beyond.
