Hi all,
So I’m having trouble deciding between USC and Clemson. I am from New York and am not sure which field of study I want to go into yet. I’m hoping to eventually achieve an MBA or JD (getting a dual degree in these would be ideal). My top choices if I had to say right now would be pre-business, international business, sports management and political science.
Now I know that if you look at rankings Clemson wins, but I also know that I probably shouldn’t put too much stock into these rankings. I have received a significant scholarship from USC - it would be around 20k a year for me to attend. I have also been admitted into te capstone scholars program. That has made my decision a heck of a lot harder for me, I really don’t want to leave all that money on the table (Clemson would be around 35k a year). But are the academics at Clemson that much better than USC that the price is worth it?
A little more information:
I like the layout and feel of Clemson’s campus more, but I like the fact USC is in a city offering more options. I plan on going Greek. I am stressing about which college will prepare me better for the future, will set me up better for success. It is probably true to say that I could get an overall better GPA at USC than Clemson if I put in the same amount of work. Again, I plan to go to grad school.
Any an all information/advice/input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
