Go TO USC or Go To Penn State?

Hey guys! Thank you for replying. I will definitely check out the NPC in order to see what my family can afford. My scores for the SAT come in on the 11th so I will update on this issue. As for the next SAT, my goal is to get a 1450-1500. As for money, I plan on taking a shot at the Questbridge scholarship, whatever can give me the most money. I know that Penn State is a great school but I am very susceptible to stagnancy and feeling stuck, which often affects my studies. I will definitely negate my choices of UCs, considering their lack of financial aid. I will also be opening up my college choices, as you have told me, but for right now, I plan to reach for California. I don’t have any family over in the West Coast, except for an aunt and uncle who lives in Las Vegas but that will change pretty soon. I will comment the NPC results soon! Thank you again!
