[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]USC's nickname is "university of spoiled children".

If I recall correctly, the school does have a football team (but not sure about cheerleaders).[/quote]

yea, spoiled children produce these results

Top feeders to engineering #1

Top feeders to Wall Street #10

Top feeders to Silicon Valley #8

USC is often UCLA's rejects choice. The stats bear this out. For a public university with an affordable tuition, UCLA isn't too shabby compared to USC in terms of engineering, wall street, silicon valley placements.  [/quote]

Nope, UCLA rejects probably go with UCI, UCD, UCSD, etc.
You can probably find many Stanford rejects at USC.

USC was the only West Coast school that my VA kid applied and attending with half tuition merit. 
It's little bit more than UVA.  Yes, college pricing system in the US is bullshit, but my kid got lucky.

If I was a CA resident and price is the same, I would choose USC.
Only reason to choose UCLA would be if full price USC vs instate UCLA.

[b]UCI, UCD, UCSD are not at the UCLA level[/b]. UCLA rejects flush with cash will choose USC because USC is a crosstown rival.

USC is not seen as an ivy plus rejects' choice. That would be WashU. USC is a notch below WashU; hence, twice removed from ivy pluses. [/quote]

Uh.. yes, so UCLA rejects go there.  
If price is the same, I would choose USC.

WashU maybe for pre-med?  
I would definitely choose USC for CS, Engineering, Business over WashU.

and of course [b]for the School of Cinematic Arts.[/b]

For those who are admitted to USC and NYU, the choice is NYU for the bold.

USC SCA acceptance rate is 2-3%, probably the lowest program in the US.
