All events on calendar.usc.edu are accessible to the public, so anyone can search, browse, or view events at USC by event type, audience, or location.
If you’re logged in with your USC email address (your USC NetID), you can also add events to your personal calendar, or subscribe to your favorite departments so you never miss a thing.
If you’ve been accepted to USC but not yet enrolled, you won’t be able to use your USC email address to login until your first term starts.
Using Filters
Your event will appear whenever a user selects a filter that matches the event. For example, if the event is assigned to the “Students” audience, the “University Park Campus” campus, and the “Music” event type, then the event will appear when users select any of those filters.
Events on the calendar homepage
There are two types of events that appear on the homepage:
Featured Events
Signature events highlight the most significant happenings around the University. These events appear featured on the homepage. These include distinguished speakers and performers and events that reflect our institutional priorities. Our calendar editor selectively curates these events from the submissions we receive.
Event Highlights
The events feed below Featured Events are also individually chosen by the calendar editor, and are representative of the most engaging upcoming events.
If you want your events to be considered as a Featured Event or Event Highlight, be sure to follow the event listing best practices.
What about external sites?
Departments or other websites can display USC calendar event listings on their own websites, for cross-promotional purposes. See Add Event Listings to Your Site to find out how. Note that these events are pulled into external sites automatically, based on the filters chosen.
