Hi everyone, so here is my dilema:

I was admitted to Case Western’s Weatherhead school with 23k in scholarship money so my estimated cost would be around 32k a year

I was also admitted to USC’s Marshall school but as a spring admit; Estimated cost is full tuition (unless i get a scholarship once fin aid is out)

Ive grown up in a suburb of LA and im not too keen on USC’s campus nor the area around it, granted i have yet to view it through the eyes of an admitted student. I know USC has such a strong presence in SOCAL but I cant help but feel like I would be foolish to 1. turn down that much money and 2. go in as a spring admit. My parents make enough that they can pay for either but still. Is USC really worth the money? and as a spring admit will i have a worse time?

I have yet to visit case but plan to within the next few weeks, if anyone could comment on Weatherhead and the university as a whole it would be super helpful

Thanks!
