What is your major? Lots of the biomedical engineering students are pre-med. They have internships where you can get paid at least $20/hour while you're doing the internship. It may take longer to graduate if you do an internship, since you'll be mostly off campus for a summer + semester. That will get you a LOT of hands-on research experience if you choose the right opportunity. There is an internship office just for engineering majors at the engineering school, as well as a job placement center just for them.
I imagine if you have gotten to know your profs at a huge school, you'll have an even better chance of getting to know them well at a smaller place & in smaller upper division classes at USC. For example, in engineering, there are only 200 freshmen & you see each other in a lot of courses. I suspect the group gets pretty close & has good opportunities to get to know the profs well.
I'm not sure how this all works out if you are in Letters & Sciences instead of engineering, as its much larger & has all kinds of majors & students.
