I was accepted to both UMich and USC and I have a very tough decision to make. Which college should I go to for engineering?
@MrBean101 They’re both excellent programs and, while UMich is higher ranked in engineering, USC is very well respected. They are very different schools, with very different weather! UMich is a very large state school; USC has the benefits of a not-as-large (though still big) private school. UMich is in a terrific college town; USC is obviously more urban. Are the costs comparable? If so, my suggestion is to not get hung up on differences in rankings (which are subjective) and just pick the place where you feel you’d like to spend the next four years. You’ll get an excellent education at each school.
Thanks for the reply. The financial assistance is similar and I would have to pay the same at both schools. I feel I am hung up on the small details at each school.
