I am choosing between oxy, usd, and usc. usc has the name recognition and alumni but it is 45 grand a year. Oxy is around 42 grand a year with nothing and usd is around 35 with a 12 grand scholarship and possibly honors system. The point is, go where you feel comfortable. Don’t worry about undergraduate as long as you do well. Spend money and find the name with prestige when looking at graduate school. For myself, I am now leaning toward usd because it is a more complete package, but I am still vacillating.
