[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have any thoughts on schools like Santa Clara, Loyola, and San Diego?  Out East and DD wants to head west.  [/quote]

Not SLAC/UC:  [b]USC is only one worth the money [/b]and all the way to the west coast.  Of course there is Stanford but.[/quote]

Disagree strongly. Ask any Californian. It’s a rich kid party school. University of Spoled Children. It’s reached its “fame” through hiring expensive marketers like Northeastern and Chicago have done. And it’s $99k a year [/quote]

No, you don’t speak for all Californians. Unfortunately [b]the nation’s top privates  are now nearing 100k. [/b]Disgusting yes. I don’t disagree.  But USC holds a lot of lore in So Cal. It’s similar to how people feel about Notre Dame. Huge networking, loyal fans, Trojan love, beautiful campus, excellent academics. [/quote]

No they are not. Only USC and College of Denver. The rest are $83k -$94k. USC has always been the most expensive. It was the first one to go over $90k just a few years back and that gave the green light to other privates to go over $90k. The moment USC goes over $100k (soon I predict) the others will follow.

And yes most Californians do not think highly of it. I was with a prof of computer science from there just yesterday and he rolled his eyes at the expense and ridiculous state of admissions. He sends his doctoral candidates to other schools. [/quote]
