Common Questions
Has University of Southern California released its 2026-27 supplemental essays?
We have not found them labeled for 2026-27 on the college's website or the Common App's public pages as of September 26, 2026. We checked USC Admission: First-Year Students. Applicants can see the current prompts inside the Common App after adding USC to their list, and we will add them here once the college posts them.
Why not show last year's USC prompts?
Colleges change prompts and word limits from year to year. Showing last year’s prompts as this year’s would send students to the wrong target.
