Graduate of Michigan, live in LA. Neither stereotype is really true.

USC isn’t University of Spoiled Children anymore. There are a lot of kids on financial aid, and anyone that works at USC can send their kids there tuition free. I’d argue Michigan has replaced it. OOS is close to $70,000/year, and the university rarely gives OOS students from upper middle class backgrounds much aid at all.

They’re both really good schools. Michigan is in the most prototypical college town out there, Ann Arbor. It’s a true college experience.

USC also has a true campus experience, but it’s the in middle of the 2nd largest city and metro area in the country, so there’s a lot of culture available. Both have top notch culture, athletic events, concerts, etc.

Michigan never felt big to me at all, and I came from a small high school with only 53 in my graduating class.

To me, it’s a coin flip. Does he want colder weather or sunshine?
