Dislikes
- Tuition cost, living expenses, poor student to faculty ratio, lake of job opportunities for international students, contrasting course curriculum, large intake of CS students when compared to limited resources, decline in quality of research
USC is great but costly. The campus and intake is large; hence there is good competition for the oncampus jobs. Weather is good, but living in LA is costly. Students find it very difficult to make personal bondings with the faculties. Research opportunities are vast. Overall, USC stands out in few departments like Cinematic arts, Civil Engineering, Health Science.

USC truly fosters a supportive and enriching environment that has enriched my academic and personal development in countless ways.

- The alumni network of USC is very strong and would help me find a job by networking. Prof. Shrikanth is one of the reasons why I chose this university. His work in signal processing is outstanding. The location of the university is in the Silicon Beach and is excellent for Tech.
I’m still in my first semester at USC, so I’m still getting used to the curriculum. It is very difficult to take out time for applying for internships and then giving their online assessments, preparing for interviews. All of this has to be done in conjunction with the numerous assignments that we get every single week which eats up a lot of out time.
Silicon valley is the global technology hub and many notable companies like Google, Facebook, Apple, Cisco, PayPal are headquartered there. It is also the home for thousands of startups. I wanted to be part of these tech giants in Silicon valley. After chatting with friends and relatives in united states, I got a strong feeling that studying in California might have a slight advantage in terms of job prospects and so was in search for admissions in the top universities in California. University of Southern California(from here on referred as USC) is well reputed and is one of the top private universities in California. USC has a good ranking in Computer Science. It also has great alumni network.
USC has a very good name and ranks in Computer Science and it is very well recognized in the job market as well. The location of USC is also very good for getting placed into good companies.
university of southern California is among the top universities for its computer science program so it became an obvious choice for me. It has renowned faculty, a great curriculum, and is located in the city which is beneficial in terms of networking. Located in California, companies find it easier to interview students and also make it easier for students to find jobs.
It has good courses of quantum computing where I further choose to do my PhD in. Great exposure of real time environment.
