Welcome to University of Southern California

Thank you for your interest in graduate studies at USC. As a world-class, private research institution, USC offers more than 400 top-ranked programs across a broad array of disciplines and fosters one of the most diverse, dynamic campus populations in the U.S. Our students graduate uniquely prepared to meet the challenges of the 21st century. 

As you prepare to apply to USC, we encourage you to visit the USC Graduate Admission website to review the application process and checklist. For specific application requirements, visit the website for your intended program of study. If you have previously applied to USC using this application system, you can use the same login credentials to avoid creating a duplicate account. Only create one account, even if you are applying to several programs for the same or different terms, as creating multiple accounts will lead to delays in processing your application.
