<p>As someone who considered attending school in California (UCSB) I find this question as an easy answer. Both USC and IU are great schools, but the fact that you were accepted as direct admit into the Kelley School of Business is a huge accomplishment. Congratulations! Some of the most influential parts of my college life happened during my freshman year, and as other have said in previous posts, life at IU is truly unique. Having to transfer from another school before attending USC just seems silly to me especially when a great opportunity is also given to you!</p>
<p>Also, weather at IU isn’t as bad as you might think. It was 78 and sunny in Bloomington today and 65 in Los Angelas… I would say that is a fair comparison. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
