<p>Yeah including room and board. its estimated for OOS to be from 28k -30k without a scholarship for me. I won’t be going home often that is probably why. If I got into UCLA btw I would choose that over Virginia Tech. But USC, the area surrounding it is horrible. Trust me horrible. (not a classy part of town). It is a great school thats true, but I have no money. You will get an excellent education there, though UCLA vs USC I would choose UCLA any day. Also, USC isn’t that hard to get into… of course it is competitive but here in cali everyone applies to UCSD and USC and there are plenty of kids who don’t getinto UCSD but get into USC ( though USC is a better school). It all just depends. Go trojans (in your case)</p>
