“vinceh,” thanks for your articulate and detailed response! I would enjoy hearing from you again once I receive my fin aid.

I just really don’t want to miss out on the opportunity of attending USC, as I was unable to receive acceptance out of high school.

I am really considered about my future, as we all are, but I hope I am not shooting myself in the foot by not going to USC no matter what.

I am not stuck on investment banking. I want a well-rounded degree that I can utilize in many different areas of finance or business in general.

Also, do you think the academic course loud and rigor is more difficult as USC than Penn State? If yes, is it a lot more?

If I do want to be in the finance industry, what do I need to do after undergraduate school? What kind of graduate program and how many years of work experience?
