@Pawrrrrrr A friend of my daughter won the Trustee Scholarship at USC, and was also admitted to Stanford, her dream school. Her family was in the same situation, no need-based aid from Stanford, but truly couldn’t afford it. She enrolled at USC, and 4 years later was the valedictorian of her engineering discipline (yes, USC recognizes these students!) She turned those stats into a fully funded grad program at Stanford.

Take the money and run off to do fabulous things in your education and in your life! Even though you have lived in LA all your life, being on campus will be a truly different and transforming experience for you.
