It is not cheap to go to school but I never felt that I was wasting my money when paying my tuition fees.
» Read MoreI am getting a superb education at an in-state school. However, even getting the largest state scholarship and a scholarship from the school, I am left to cover $10,000 in costs. Out of state students with good grades might qualify for in-state tuition and other scholarships. All in all the cost isn't astronomical, and you get a lot (remember to use the services your fees cover)
» Read MoreUSC offers a lot of scholarships, especially to out of state students and really promotes it's value at the university. Overall I feel it is a great deal.
» Read MoreUSC parking can get expensive if one parks solely in the parking garages. However, there is an $80 all year parking lot pass one can purchase in the fall semester and park slightly out of the way but there is a shuttle system with multiple shuttles that go all around and through campus.
» Read MoreUSC is definitely worth the money. There are tons of free events, and there is always something going on around campus. You'll never be bored!
