University of Southern California Top Questions

The diversity at USC astounds me. Now when I visit my friends at certain other schools (who's names I won't disclose) the homogeny of the type of people and racial background saddens and diheartens me.

The University of Southern California not only has the Trojan Family connection, the strongest alumin database in the entire country, but the amount of school spirit and pride that the students and alumni have for the university is what makes USC one of the most fun schools to attend. Sports or not, pride for a university that has so much to offer to not only the community surrounding the school, but globally is something that cannot be measured in words and must be experienced person in order to assess a proper affections of the school's students and faculty.

I think the best part about my school is the support network. Whether you need an internship or a job or help studying people are always willing to help. People here are really friendly and everyone is always networking, but most of the time that's not even on purpose. You tend to find yourself with a diverse group of friends you can count on.

The best thing about USC is the wide variety of people you are exposed to. Cultures that once seemed exotic and foreign (compared to you are accustomed to) start to become more familiar and natural; in the same way, your own culture starts to influence others, too. The result is a community of broadened minds and global citizens, prepared to analyze issues in creative and progressive ways.

The social network, and the location. The students, if they so choose, may become very well connected to expert alumni that will, in turn, assisst you with invaluable connections to the hotbed of your respective interest - escpecially, film, music, business. Los Angeles, obviously, is full of opportunity - and USC, being as intimate and even slightly exclusive as it is, opens doors for you that you may not otherwise have access to.

Although there are countless advantages to being a part of USC, the best part of the school is, in fact, the spirit of the Trojan Family. This feeling of belonging, perpetuated by an atmosphere of welcome as promoted by staff, faculty, and the student body, envelops each incoming freshman and carries them along their entire college career. It results not only in a student's increase in their desire to excel, but also in small classroom sizes and consequential connections with professors, extreme school pride at athletic events, and untold connections in the professional world.

I LOVE the sports enthusiasm. Despite recent problems with the basketball and football teams, there is still a lot of school spirit, especially for the band, and that is one of the most important things I was looking for in a college education. I am very happy with my choice in college and I will always be a proud alum.

The class sizes are very concentrated. I am in the Annenberg professional school for Public Relations. My class sizes are usually always less than 20 people which is a lot better than a lecture hall with over 100 students.
