Both have amazing pharmacy programs, but I'm still wondering which school is stronger.</p>

<p>General Comments, scholarship chances, status info, going to USC...?: Since I ended up with spring admit I'm not sure if I'll attend. I'm definitely going to push for fall, but I have already been accepted to some colleges with great business schools (UIllinois, Indiana, Michigan). I really like the social atmosphere at USC and I want to work on the west coast so I think USC is the best fit for me. I'm happy that the waiting game is over and that I can finally be a Trojan.</p>
