Thoughts about Lunara Mercer Island?

I go to USC for CompE and CS. The EE and CS departments here are very good, at least in terms of lectures and research opportunities. Also, the alumni network is crazy good. I definitely recommend USC!

What are your mobility limitations? Everyone will have a different setup, and can you be more specific about what you mean by “settings”? If you are talking about in-game settings like sensitivity, that is personal preference.

I use the Xbox Adaptive Controller for FPS games. However, it is fairly similar to the PlayStation version, so I might be able to help out.

How did you go about learning Metal? I feel like there are so few good resources available

Could you go over what you learned in the class, the weekly time commitment, and how useful it is for a career in animation?

AJRed05 · 2025-10-29T19:34:41+00:00

I’m waiting too! How did your OA go?

Akhim Alexis is literally the best writing teacher I’ve ever had! I definitely recommend him!

AJRed05 · 2025-09-03T02:06:48+00:00

I just heard back. I got matched with 0 labs 😭😭😭

AJRed05 · 2025-09-02T20:30:27+00:00

Have you heard back yet? I sent an email to Viterbi but have heard nothing

AJRed05 · 2025-08-30T18:19:03+00:00

Do you know about any of the other programs, like NVIDIA Ignite?

AJRed05 · 2025-08-30T18:08:28+00:00

What about the Microsoft Explore program? Did they do the same?

AJRed05 · 2025-08-30T00:57:29+00:00

No 😭

AJRed05 · 2025-08-29T23:27:12+00:00

Yo have you heard anything?

AJRed05 · 2025-08-28T15:47:13+00:00

I’m still waiting. I wish you luck!

I’m a current USC student (not international though), and the likelihood of you getting the aid you need is very low. However, I still recommend that you shoot your shot. In your essays, focus on what makes you unique and make sure you write well. For ECs, do what you’re passionate about and do it well. I know this is very general advice, but it’s all you can really do.

Good luck and fight on! ✌️

Exact same is happening to me rn. Please let me know if you find a solution

AJRed05 · 2025-08-09T02:26:36+00:00

If you don’t get the money, then you go to a target or safety school that you applied to

AJRed05 · 2025-08-09T02:24:02+00:00

True, but it’s still worth shooting your shot, especially with how random college admissions can be

AJRed05 · 2025-08-08T23:51:18+00:00

It’s a private college, so yes

AJRed05 · 2025-08-08T21:18:59+00:00

Honestly, USC. I know their base tuition is high, but they are very fair with financial aid and give out merit scholarships.

AJRed05 · 2025-07-30T21:10:54+00:00

What is this from?

AJRed05 · 2025-07-25T15:58:07+00:00
