What housing options are available at USC?
USC is truly residential and definitely not a “commuter school.” Practically all freshmen live on campus, but are not required to do so. Housing is guaranteed to incoming freshmen and is readily available to continuing students, provided they meet all deadlines. USC students live in singles, doubles, studios; they live with several of roommates, with one other roommate and with no roommates; They reside on campus and off, in quiet halls, not-so-quiet halls, academic and ethnic theme halls, residential colleges and with faculty in residence and Greek houses. The university operates more than 40 different housing facilities, including residence halls, apartments, houses and residential colleges. Eleven facilities are on campus; the remainder are located in the local neighborhood. Regardless of which option students choose, there are plenty of places to study, eat, do laundry and meet people.
