<p>I need to make a decision soon. I visited USC and fell in love with that school. Never visited NEU and planning to visit soon. But before that I need advise.</p>
<p>Total Cost per year in USC : $47,000 (got some need based award for the first year and the cost may increase later)
Total Cost per year in NEU: $35,000 (got a decent award from school for all of the four years)</p>
<p>Planning to do CS and need your advise which one to choose with the following items in mind:
1. I live in West coast and planning to settle down in the west coast
2. My dad is fine with spending extra $$ but I feel guilty
3. Other than the good weather and alumni network, what else USC bring to table !! And these two things worth the extra $$</p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
