Tulane or University of South Carolina for History?

Tulane and the University of South Carolina are my two top choices right now. I am weighing other things such as financial cost, distance from home, student body size, etc. But, if anyone could provide any insight into the history programs at either of the schools that would be much appreciated in helping me make a decision. Both knowledge of them and personal experiences are welcomed!!

Tulane offers a nice history program. I’d give it the edge in this comparison.

@merc81 could you possibly expand on that?

It’s a bit subtle, but Tulane’s history department seems closely aligned to the core educational mission of its university. If this is the case, you might experience a greater sense of academic integration there than at USC.

@merc81 did you attend Tulane?

@animallover345: I’ll PM you.
