<p>I am a junior from Chicago, and I am very interested in USC. I am planning on visiting sometime this spring/summer...when do you suggest I visit? I want to come in the summer because I have the time off work/school, but then I don't know if USC is still in session. Also, being only 17, where can I stay? Are there hostels in LA where I can crash at? Thanks!</p>
<p>You're going by yourself? I'd say bring a friend.</p>
