Only students who have been ADMITTED to the University of Southern California may apply to the Thematic Option Honors Program.

  • Unfortunately, continuing USC students, transfer students, and students admitted to the spring semester are not eligible to apply for the Thematic Option Honors Program.
  • Students of all majors (except for Dance and World Bachelor in Business) may apply to the Thematic Option Honors Program.
  • Students are considered for acceptance to Thematic Option based on their application to the program. Scholarship status or admission to other USC programs are not taken into consideration.

Since space in the program is limited, we encourage interested students to apply to Thematic Option even if they have not yet decided that they will attend USC.
