<p>you’re really tan, wear short shorts and a tank top, super blonde, lots of make up, and like, you like to say like, like this.</p>
<p>It’s not nearly as generous as Stanford and some of the ivy league schools. Stanford’s is amazing. It would have been the least expensive school for our daughter to attend. How many schools allow you to make up to $100,000 and only make you pay for room and board? Free ride up to $60,000. That’s why it’s even harder to get in. There are a lot more qualified applicants now that they know it’s affordable.</p>

what are you talking about? USC’s finaid program is one of the best in the nation. not to mention we have the most pell grant (eligibility based on income) recipients out of the top 25 or 30 private universities.**</p>
<p>^2Leashes, josebiwasabi was not comparing USC to Stanford, he was responding to the uninformed comment by sentimentGX4 saying that a student has to be “rich” to attend USC. I can tell you with certainty that a student - male or female - does not have to be “rich” to attend USC. The financial aid at USC is excellent, and josebiwasabi’s comment is quite valid.</p>
<p>If Stanford was your daughter’s most affordable option, why diid she choose to attend elsewhere?</p>
<p>i’ve always found it funny that usc is called a ‘rich kids’ school considering that it’s in one of the poorest neighborhoods in LA (before anyone accuses me of being a usc hater i lived most of my life in that neighborhood, so i should know) and UCLA isn’t regarded as, i would imagine, ‘rich kids’ school. That’s kind of odd considering that it’s in one of the most expensive parts of los angeles. Both offer generous financial aid, but if you don’t qualify for any financial aid then UCLA is definitely cheaper (assuming your not an international student)</p>

This is only true for in-state students. For OOS students who are not eligible for finaid the difference is rather trivial. When my daughter was applying it would have cost within 5-10% to attend either one. The UC system is probably THE most expensive in the nation for OOS students.</p>
