EDIT: The previous title was "LLU vs Western". However, I am now trying to decide between LLU and USC.
Hi everyone, I was already set on attending Loma Linda University (LLU). But I was recently accepted to USC. Before I applied, I set USC as my top choice. But after thinking about it some more, I was really impressed with LLU during the interview. Everyone at LLU was extra friendlier, and I really love the Christian atmosphere. Not only that, LLU is a smaller school, and offers a smaller class size of 75, compared to 200 at USC. I like that individual attention, and the chance to know my classmates more. Where I came from (a UC school), I didn't like the fact of taking a biology class with 400 students in a lecture hall, and it was hard to get to know the students/faculty.
But then there's USC, the bigger name and reputation. I would like to go into hospital pharmacy, and I would think USC would better prepare me for that. Other than the big name and huge networking, that is all I see positive for USC. Now I need to make a quick decision. Almost everyone is pushing me to go to USC. But I'm just really impressed with LLU's friendly atmosphere, small class size, and small campus. I guess I'm more of a person who prefers a small close-knit community, than a large busy city. But then again, I know many of you probably will think I would be CRAZY to turn down USC...
So, which one would you choose, and why?
