Major: Computer Science (This Major's Salary over time)
Graduate Studies in Computer Science at the University of Southern California are good.

The Computer Science department has some very good faculty, and the amount of research done here is extensive.

The problem is low criteria for admission and thus the low quality of students. And particularly, very high number of students resulting in high class strengths, low financial aid chances.

So I would advise you to go a similarly ranked university if you have offer of admission in one.

Apart from academics, USC has good social/party life for undergraduates, whereas for graduate students its more work and spending time in computer labs.
