In Virginia, Maryland, and DC, USC is South Carolina

Not in my house.

USC (South Carolina) existed before CA was a state.

irrelevent. USC is University of S Cal and U So
Carolina was UofSC until lastyear. Now there are two USCs. You could have googled that

Relevant because U South Carolina has a legitimate claim, they were there first. Regardless, both schools claim USC.

Turned down VT and UVa for Rice Engineering. The cost difference still makes me sick to the stomach.

This is true for the wealthy and poor. For families with HHI between $200K and $400K, and especially those without large 529s, no financial aid from higher ranked schools makes UVA a great deal. Lots of families make that trade off.

A family on 200k, especially without large 529 or savings will get aid at a T20.

Also, are you really saying that anyone making under 200k is poor? Sheesh!

When people say USC it's 99% chance the one in Cali.

Even parole in VA, MD, and DC are not really interested in South Carolina.

PP thinks $400k isn't rich?

My kid got around 30K and COA was just little over $40K in reality at Northeastern.

Just little more than UVA, so got out of VA.
