UCSD v USC v UOP pre-pharm

<p>I'm still waiting for finaid from USC, but UOP finaid was generous so I assume USC will be too. So, if these three schools cost the same (after finaid etc), which would be better if I will go to pharmacy school in the future? I am biochemistry major at USC and USC, and 3+3 prepharm for UOP. But I would still like to take classes other than science classes eg languages.. I love UCSD but if cost is the same at this public and the other privates, then would it be stupid not to go to privates, which have more personal attention? I really can't make up my mind!! Any insights are greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>My wife, brother,cousin and 2nd cousin are all pharmacists from USC. They have the most established program of the 3 schools you mentioned and for sure the greatest selection of internships which will be important in which area you are considering. UOP is good and UCSD is very new. If costs are similar, hands down USC. Of course, I'm sort of bias as I also went to SC also.</p>

<p>USC produces excellent pharmacists with a powerful network. The area around the pharmacy school and the hospital, however, leaves much to be desired...</p>
