Key dates and deadlines for financial aid are available here.
We encourage you to review some of the information on the Information for Admitted Students section of the Undergraduate Admissions website. There you’ll learn more about the experiential learning opportunities, and internships and job offers available to Marshall students.
One of the biggest advantages of a Marshall education is your student's opportunity to tap into the USC network for internships and post-graduate jobs. In fact, nearly all Marshall undergraduates intern during their four years of school.
The Trojan Family is an always expanding network of more than 360,000 alumni and friends of the university. As a Marshall student, your child will be able to take advantage of mentorship opportunities like the Career Advantage Program (CAP). The program pairs students with mentors and alumni from the business community each year to develop students’ professional, interpersonal, and networking skills.
The Welcome Week event for Diversity Students hosted by Professor Zivia Sweeny connects minority students with employees of the Big Four accounting firms, and the Marshall Recruiter Reception invites Marshall students for one-on-one conversations with the recruiters during the school year. Upon graduation, some of the top hiring companies are Amazon, Bloomberg L.P., Morgan Stanley, and Oracle.
The beauty and strength of each Marshall class comes from its diversity. Each student’s chosen coursework to their varying interests and backgrounds, makes Marshall one of the most diverse student bodies in the country. In fact, 18% of Marshall students are international.
Nearly 1,000 Marshall students take advantage of study abroad and international internship programs each year, including 75% of the freshman class. An education at Marshall means an introduction to the rest of the world—in both business and culture.
Business is not one size fits all. Marshall students are encouraged and supported to take on another major or minor outside of their business program. This helps students discover what part of the business world they want to specialize in, and it helps them start to discover and learn from day one.
A true 4-year undergraduate business school is a great place to start, but many students strive to take their education further. Marshall’s specialized masters programs help take undergraduate degrees further.
For accounting students, USC Leventhal offers two progressive master’s programs: Master of Accounting (MAcc) and Master of Business Taxation (MBT). While the accounting master’s programs are competitive, a student’s chance of acceptance drastically increases when pairing an undergraduate degree from Marshall with a progressive master’s program. 25–30% of students in the accounting progressive program are USC Marshall undergraduates.
