在美國眾多知名大學(xué)中，南加利福尼亞大學(xué)也是不錯(cuò)的一所。南加利福尼亞大學(xué)位于加州南部城市洛杉磯，是美國西部規(guī)模最大的一所高等學(xué)府。在國內(nèi)，每年也有不少學(xué)習(xí)向往這所大學(xué)。那么，在申請(qǐng)?jiān)撔５臅r(shí)候，需要注意哪些問題呢?下面和出國留學(xué)網(wǎng)一起來看看吧!
What GPA and test scores are required for admission?
There is no minimum requirement or absolute "cutoff" for grades, class rank or test scores. USC evaluates prospective students through an individualized, comprehensive review process that takes these, and many other factors, into account. Regardless, most first-year students are selected from the top 10 percent of their high school classes. Successful transfer students typically present at least one year of rigorous, full-time academic coursework, with strong grades.
入學(xué)對(duì)GPA和考試分?jǐn)?shù)要什么要求?
對(duì)于成績(jī)、班級(jí)排名或考試分?jǐn)?shù)，沒有最低要求或絕對(duì)的截點(diǎn)。南加利福尼亞大學(xué)通過個(gè)性化而又全面的審核程序?qū)ξ磥韺W(xué)生進(jìn)行評(píng)估，審核程序會(huì)將以上因素和其他許多因素納入考量。不過，大部分大一學(xué)生是從高中班級(jí)最優(yōu)秀的10%的學(xué)生中選出來的。成功轉(zhuǎn)校的學(xué)生一般要接受至少一年嚴(yán)格的全日制學(xué)術(shù)課程學(xué)習(xí)，并且成績(jī)優(yōu)秀。
Can college units taken before high school graduation satisfy General Education requirements? What kind of credit may be earned by college courses taken during high school?
All undergraduate students entering USC may receive a combined maximum of 32 elective units for college courses and/or examinations (such as Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate) taken before graduation from high school. A maximum of 16 of these 32 units will be allowed for college courses taken before high school graduation. These courses must appear on a college transcript as part of a regular college curriculum and are expected to be taught on the college campus by college faculty.
在高中畢業(yè)之前拿到的college unit滿足一般教育要求嗎?高中學(xué)習(xí)的大學(xué)課程拿到的學(xué)分是什么類型的學(xué)分?
所有入學(xué)南加利福尼亞大學(xué)的本科生最多可以從大學(xué)課程中或從高中畢業(yè)之前參加的考試(如大學(xué)預(yù)修課和國際文憑)中拿到32個(gè)選修unit。32個(gè)unit中，最多可以從高中畢業(yè)之前上的大學(xué)課程中拿到16個(gè)。這些課程必須是作為大學(xué)日常課程由大學(xué)老師在大學(xué)校園教授的出現(xiàn)在大學(xué)成績(jī)單上的課程。
How do the grades I earn during my senior year of high school factor into USC's admission decision?
Generally, for the purposes of admission into USC, we review an applicant's coursework from grade 9 through the first term of his or her senior year. Students need to use the Mid-Year Report Form to submit their fall grades as soon as they become available.
Once admitted, all students are required to submit an official copy of their high school transcripts to verify their graduation dates. Students' transcripts will also be reviewed to ensure that they have maintained a continued level of academic achievement. A serious downturn in a student's senior year could result in the rescinding of an admission offer.
在高中最后一年中拿到的成績(jī)?nèi)绾螌?duì)南加利福尼亞大學(xué)的入學(xué)決定產(chǎn)生影響?
一般而言，出于招生目的，學(xué)校會(huì)對(duì)學(xué)生九年級(jí)到高中最后一年的課程進(jìn)行審核。學(xué)生需要盡早使用《年中報(bào)告表》提交秋季成績(jī)。
一旦被錄取，學(xué)生需要提交高中官方成績(jī)單，以核實(shí)畢業(yè)日期。審核成績(jī)單也是為了確保學(xué)生已持續(xù)維持了學(xué)術(shù)水平。最后一年成績(jī)嚴(yán)重下滑可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致錄取被解除。
What classes should a student take during high school to prepare for USC?
Students should successfully complete at least sixteen yearlong college preparatory courses while in high school:
Four (4) years of English (composition and literature)
Two (2) years of foreign language
Three (3) years of mathematics (algebra, geometry, algebra II, trigonometry, or calculus)
Two (2) years of natural science (e.g., biology, chemistry, physics)
Two (2) years of social sciences (e.g., U.S. history, government, economics, geography)
Three (3) years of additional courses in subjects above or academic electives (such as computer science, art, music, speech)
Students should pursue Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate classes whenever possible and if offered by high school.

對(duì)SAT學(xué)科成績(jī)有要求嗎?

What standardized tests does USC require for admission?
USC requires either SAT or ACT scores from:
All first-year applicants.
Transfer applicants who have accumulated fewer than 30 transferable semester units since graduating high school.
For students who take the SAT more than once, USC records the highest scores for each section —even if achieved in different sittings — but will not combine section scores from the old SAT (prior to March 2016) and the redesigned SAT.
For students taking the ACT, USC will record the highest composite score.
The essay portion of the ACT is optional. The essay portion of the SAT will be optional for students taking the redesigned test in March 2016 or after.
