Join GPAC, GSG, and your favorite Price School student organizations for the party of the year: USC Price Prom! We are excited to host this signature event at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the first time. This year, we will have excellent photo opportunities, delicious appetizers, a dance contest, and some superlatives to award to your fellow Price school classmates! All ticketed guests will receive admission, appetizers, and access to bar service with drinks available for purchase.
All ages are welcome at Price Prom this year, but guests 21 and over MUST present a valid ID. USC graduate students are eligible for a FREE ticket provided that they provide their student ID number and degree program during ticket registration AND email a photo of their student ID to Gpac.usc@gmail.com with the subject “Name-ID Number.”
Schedule
Price Prom begins at 7pm and ends at 12am. Appetizers will be available while supplies last. Bar service will be available throughout the evening (cash is strongly encouraged). Superlatives will be awarded at 9pm, followed by the dance contest. Please arrive no later than 8:45pm so that our registration volunteers have a chance to enjoy the event as well!
Dress Code
Formal or semi-formal attire is required (e.g. dark two or three-piece suit, shirt and tie, dress shoes; floor-length dress, cocktail dress, or dress shirt and skirt, heels or dress shoes). Black-tie attire is optional (e.g. tuxedos, gowns).
Payment
USC Graduate Students
To reserve a FREE student ticket, USC graduate students must provide their student ID number and degree program on the next page. Students must also EMAIL A PHOTO OF THEIR STUDENT ID TO GPAC.USC@GMAIL.COM with the subject: “NAME-ID NUMBER” (Ex: JANE DOE – 12345678). Individuals that do not email a photo of their student ID within 24 hours may lose their RSVP.
*Note: If you do not possess a student ID, you may also submit a photo of your government issued ID, along with screenshots of your course registration.
Making Price Prom accessible is a big priority for GPAC, which is why USC graduate students are not required to pay for admission. USC students who wish to support GPAC programming are welcome to donate using the Cash App information below.
