<p>Oh this is tough. But considering how much you have to pay and how long you have to stay at USC, I would stay at UCR. Plus, if you already have made close relationships with a lot of people at UCR, I wouldn’t transfer… unless you have friends over there at USC. It’s usually really hard to make new relationships at a new school.</p>
<p>Schoolwise, USC is a better school and it’ll open a lot more options for you in the future. But that doesn’t mean you’ll get no opportunity from UCR. School is usually what you make of it… and you already achieved a solid GPA at UCR. </p>
<p>So, unless you really really want to go to USC, I would stay at UCR.</p>
