<p>Hi CC,</p>
<p>I just recently opened my packet I received by Pratt and found a pleasant surprise of a $16,000 scholarship every year for the duration of my five year architecture program whereas at USC I will be receiving $0.</p>
<p>I was wondering if USC would be able to meet the same amount of scholarship that Pratt would (although I didn't apply for the Dec. 1st deadline)... </p>
<p>For my family, the price of education isn't a deciding factor, but a relevant concern of course.</p>
<p>And although Pratt ranks higher than USC in terms of architecture, if money was not a problem I would pick USC because I have confidence in the growing reputation of the school of architecture at USC as well as being an overall better "fit" for me.</p>
<p>Thanks alot!
