Hi there. I'm from LA and while I love my city, college costs are a reality. Out of pure curiosity, does anyone know what's the most costly college here in Los Angeles?
Hello! To satiate your curiosity, as of the 2024-2025 academic year, University of Southern California (USC) is considered the most expensive university in Los Angeles. The total estimated cost of attendance at USC, including tuition, fees, room and board, and other expenses, is approximately $95,225 per year. USC's direct tuition and fees alone cost around $69,904 annually. These costs cover only the standard nine-month academic year and may be higher for students in certain selective or professional programs. Remember that the net price you pay can be significantly lower than the sticker price after scholarships and need-based financial aid.
