Yourself taking a class, starting an internship, or snagging a job on USC’s Health Science Campus, Transportation Services has you covered too intercampus shuttles run to and from the Health Science Campus, which is located about 10 miles northeast of the main campus, throughout the day if you find.
The service that students tell me they can’t live without is Campus Cruiser. With cars literally driven by other students, this free service is simply like a taxi and operates late into the night, so you have a safe and reliable way to get home whether you have a late night at the library or at a friend’s apartment.
The central hub of LA’s metro and rail systems in addition to campus and intercampus shuttles, Transportation Services operates a shuttle that runs back and forth to Union Station. Union Station is home to Amtrak, Southern California’s commuter train Metrolink, and LA Metro’s light bus and rail line hub. Just What does which means that for you?

I think you will find that not having a motor automobile is a non-issue these days in LA. You might also get to see and understand the populous city a bit better by hopping into the passenger seat.
It right if it seems easy, you’re not doing
Today’s post is written by guest blogger Kirk Brennan, Director of Admission.
Well, the full hour has arrived. The long reading process has come to an end.
Numerous emotions that are different for my attention, rendering it hard for me to start. My head is rushing. And so shmoop.pro I’ll begin with the stuff that is simple some basic numbers.
Year we received nearly 46,000 applications from first-year students, 24% more than last. We offered fall admission to about 8,400 students, and we expect approximately 2,650 students will accept our offer. The average GPA of the 8,400 is greater than 3.8 on an unweighted scale. The middle-50% SAT range is 2060-2250, and also the middle-50% ACT range is 30-34. Students result from all 50 states, over 70 different nations, and from all walks of life. And plenty of them really like sushi.
There is difficult stuff: First, we are exhausted. Since mid-November, this team that is outstanding put it all in the line. We read, calculate GPAs, write notes, click and scroll through student files, weighing and comparing, all on behalf of the who applied. We have been also sad. Once we started reading, we met many outstanding pupils. But at the conclusion, we ought to make difficult, even painful decisions. We take the role of advocate extremely really, then when we understand we must bid farewell to many candidates that are perfectly suitable we get only a little cranky. We have a saying round the office: it right if it seems easy, you’re not doing.
And lots of nutrients: Our company is excited. We cannot wait to learn who will be enrolling at USC year * that is next. We are encouraged, filled with hope for our future. So many of our kids are filled with optimism, as well as fully expect, also assume they are going to simply take the global world in a better way. What a job that is great have — daydreamers of sorts: we read in regards to the great dreams of our pupils, and we imagine them in our community — inside our labs, libraries, classrooms, symposia — making those dreams come true. The near future looks that are sure from where I sit.
I hope all students who stumble into this blog discover the right school for them: the one that will help them achieve their complete potential, to soar to unimaginable levels.
