<p>UCSD<br>
BioEngineering-Premed<br>
Sixth College<br>
No Financial Aid </p>
<p>USC
BioEngineering-PreMed
Viterbi School of Engineering
No financial aid yet but expected to be about
$15,000-25,000 </p>
<p>Any idea. I’m leaning towards UCSD but not sure.
What does everyone think?</p>
<p>For bioengineering UCSD is ranked #2 in the nation by US News and World Report( <a href="http://www.sandiego.edu/business/upload/ENGR/CBENG.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://www.sandiego.edu/business/upload/ENGR/CBENG.pdf</a> ) go to the second page. So for academics UCSD, but as far as social life goes, USC 100%. Im actually in the same boat as you deciding between UCSD and USC so im gonna post my info to.</p>
<p>USC
Electrical Engineering
Viterbi School of Engineering
no financial aid yet, but excpect to be pretty high</p>
<p>UCSD
Electrical Engineering
Warren College
Very good financial aid (for a UC)</p>
<p>If I go to USC I will be living at home, but consider moving into my own apartment if i get a job. For UCSD Ill be living off-campus.</p>
<p>i wonder why you get financial aid at USC than UCSD</p>
<p>You get more aid at USC because it is a private college, which has about a 40k a year cost. But since it is private school, they can do essentially whatever they want with their aid. The UCs being a state college are partially funded by the state and cost only about 20k a year, but have to be stricter with their aid money because it comes from the state budget.</p>
