<p>I chose USC because their financial aid is very generous, and I also got a trustee (full tuition) scholarship from the school of architecture.</p>
<p>Also, USC’s a relatively large school and it has many fields in which it is renowned… so I would be able to take classes in a top-notch business school if i wanted, or work with students at the number one cinema school. Another thing to consider is connections. If you go to a school good for architecture only, you might not be able to meet too many people from other fields that might become future clients.</p>
<p>Location is important too. Being from NYC, I wasn’t too sure I could adapt to small town life… USC’s location in LA means that its not a problem. It also helps that the Trojan family is strong in LA and will probably open a lot of doors.</p>
<p>Also, having asian parents, prestige comes into play as well.</p>
