<p>i applied to both, still waiting on Cornell, I lean toward SC because it is much better in terms of contacts/jobs/facilities then Cornell. As I said even my Cornell interviewer suggested I look at the SC program. I guess it would really depend would your preferences are but atleast in the west coast USC has a stronger alumni base, it’s located closer to busines/cultural centers, it’s basically sunny year round, its got a lot of school spirit. Cornell has benefits too, i guess there just not as obvious</p>
