2010 Top Entrepreneurial Programs: Undergraduate
Students Say - Student BodyThe one thing that unites everyone here is "tons of Trojan pride." USC students are also "intensely ambitious" and, while there are some "complete slackers," many students hit the books "harder than they let on." Otherwise, students insist that, "contrary to popular belief, USC has immense diversity." "The stereotypical USC student is a surfer fraternity bro or a tan, trendy sorority girl from the O.C." You'll find plenty of those. Many students are also "extremely good looking." Ethnic minorities and a high number of international students make up sizeable contingents of the undergraduate population as well. If you're gay, you shouldn't have any problems. "No one cares what your orientation is," says a first-year student. There are "prissy L.A. types" and "spoiled" kids. In some circles, "family income and the brands of clothes you wear definitely matter." However, "though there are quite a few who come from mega wealth, there are also many who are here on a great deal of financial aid." There are "lots of nerds," too, and a smattering of "band geeks and film freaks." Most students don't stray too far from the mainstream, though. "You have to go out of your way to find funky people," advises a sophomore.
