<p>You will be full fee at UC Berkeley. The UC’s are California public schools that are funded by California taxpayers, so OOS students pay full fees of about $55K.</p>

<p>USC is $60K per year, their financial aid is not that great. My son was a National Merit winner and they only offered him $20K which left us with a bill of $30-40K per year.</p>

<p>My daughter got into JH but they didn’t give her a dime.</p>

<p>Occidental is very expensive but they might be okay with financial aid for someone they really want.
You really need to look at all of the schools’ websites and look at the fees pages. That should help with the decisions. </p>
