IF you have a choice between USC and an another school—GO TO THE OTHER ONE!! First, I came with under a grant which I was SUPPOSED to have for my entire program. Not only did they cut, but they cut mid way through my firste year here.

Morover, there is nothing here. This school will bleed you dry (emotionally, financially, socially). The tuition might be low, but they fee you to death in "optional fees", ie they gouge students for everything here from a glass of water to copies at computer labs. The school has zero money for programs or resource—it is really pathtetally desperate around here. Budget cuts abound. The university is closing down labs and resources, which, of course, makes much harder to for students to research/learn.
The campus is full of lazy, whiny, students, most of whom will never have an original idea in their entire life. Most students care for NOTHING other than what goes on inside their collegiate world.
