BackNSchool83

I just finished my AA in psychology, am also a drug and alcohol counseling student, and finished after maintaining a 4.0 at my CC with full IGETC. I'm an older student, 33, back in school pursuing a new future. I am going to UC Irvine and just transfered. I know I have to prove myself here, but I understand I should apply for grad school in about a year, so I want to get this thought through early, to be prepared ahead of time. I'm currently very interested in USC's MSW program, especially if I could do it at the Irvine campus. What does USC really require for a competitive candidate ? What advice do you guys have ? Thank you !!!
