I may be in the minority but if you really love USC, I think 18K(if you finish in 2 years) is manageable debt, even if you did happen to take out loans for that. In your case, I think it’s an affordable luxury if you think it will make you happy, and not burden you or your family.
Also be aware that at UCLA you’ll be entering as a pre-bus/econ(correct me if i’m wrong, but this policy hasn’t changed?)which means that you’ll still have to maintain a certain gpa requirement to be admitted officially into the major. There is also an accounting minor gpa requirement at UCLA(if I also remember this correctly). At USC, you’re already accepted to the major.
