NYU - Fall 2016

[aramirez]

I need your help y'all so I am debating whether I want to attend NYU or USC for my MSW. I got a $15,000 scholarship from NYU (renewable my 2nd year) and a $20,000 ($10,000 each year) scholarship from USC. I would pay approximately $90,000 to attend NYU and about $104,000 to attend USC. I am from California and my parents prefer I stay here but I am ok with attending either school. Is it always the case that you get a job where you practice? What if I want to return to California to get a job here? How friendly is NY to LGBT people? What are some of your suggestions/ thoughts?
