| well there is a huge money difference there so if that makes a difference, I think that makes your decision, but if not so much of an issue, these schools could not be more different.
At its basics, Pomona is a very small school, no grad students/TA's, very personal touch if you will. Everyone lives on campus, no greek system, no big time sports. Suburban setting with 'quaint" village atmosphere.
USC is large school, lots of grad student/ta's and large classes, Big time sports, big time greek system. Limited on campus housing, large commuter element to the school.
I went to USC, my son to Pomona. If money isn't an issue I'd pick Pomona every time. 6 football games a year with the trojans isn't enough to sell me on SC when Pomona is as great and intimate an undergrad experience you could imagine. |
