<p>USC! aside from the FREE, if you plan on returning to So Cal upon graduation, of all the schools, USC will take you further.</p>

<p>Also, this may not be you, but the majority of undergrads change their major at least once. you might as well attend a school where you don’t have to pay a penny for, than attend a school simply for a department or program and end up realizing its not for you, and as a result be in debt.</p>
