USC (Marshall) or NYU (Stern)

<p>Hello ccers. I am stuck between the decision of Marshall and Stern. From Stern I am getting a full ride while at Marshall, I will have to pay around 15k a year. For me, the price does not matter as I believe I will roughly end up spending the same amount if I were to live in Manhattan. I have no idea what I want to concentrate on but I have been leaning towards maybe doing finance, but this may all change. I have been to Manhattan several times and I love the city feel. I live in California and have been in the LA area for around 3 years. Someone please help me, i'm stuck! I am slightly leaning towards NYU but I am kind of frightened by the competitiveness at the school. Thank you for your responses!</p>

<p>Stern if you want to work in finance.</p>

<p>thanks for the reply! i’m just worried that i won’t be as happy at stern (maybe even miserable because of the competitiveness and being thousands of miles away from home) but i know that i will be better off for the future at the school. however, at usc i believe i will have the time of my life.</p>

<p>If you prefer USC then go to USC, don’t let something as trivial as possible future careers ruin four years of your life ;)</p>
