I love both schools and I don’t know what to do. USC is giving me way more money than Wisco is and I won’t be in debt, however I like being closer to home (from Illinois) and I’m more of a Midwest girl. Like I see myself a little more a Wisco. I don’t know what to do. Both schools are great in academics and athletics. What would you guys do? Money or location?
Obviously I’d say Madison, 100%. But that is terribly biased. What I like to prioritize:
-Money (can you afford it)
-Major (do they have a reputable program, which program is better where)
-Location
How significant is the money, in terms of how large and if it is meaningful to you family, spare college fund vs debt. Madison is a great college town but greater LA is pretty amazing. I’d vote to expand horizons and enjoy some luxuries of private school while saving money and enjoying the weather.
How did you find out you got into USC already?
