Has anyone had experience transferring to University of South Carolina for their sophomore year? When did you apply and when did you get your admissions decision? The transfer application deadline is July 1st but my son has already submitted his application. It is my son’s top choice school. If we don’t get an admissions decision until after July 1st I am wondering how we are going to find housing and deal with financial aid and loans in such a short period of time before classes start if he gets in. Or if we find out he doesn’t get in, it might affect the timing of his acceptances at other un ..read more

It seems more and more schools, especially in the south are having housing issues. I am wondering if South Carolina has issues getting housing on campus for freshman and moving forward, if it is relatively easy to find off campus housing for future years. Is this one of those school where if you do not pay a housing deposit right when you are admitted you will not find housing? 4 posts - 3 participants Read full thread ..read more

First- Does UofSC recalculate a students transcript they submit? And if they do, where can I find their information? Our high school uses a 7 point scale (where as a 92% is considered a B). We have Regular CP classes and then in order it is Accelerated, Honors and then AP. I know typically its .5 extra for Honors and 1 point higher for AP, what about this accelerated?
