<p>OP,
Can you tell us what draws you to USC at the first place? The school is not known for social sciences and humanities in general. It has no top-ranked program in this area, as far as I know. It’s pretty big with 16,000 undergrads, so the argument of better undergrad education due to small class size doesn’t apply. Stanford, on the other hand, has top ranked departments in most areas and I suspect its anthropology is up there too.</p>
