MSW at USC(advanced standing) or UCLA?

[MSWdilemmas]

hello everyone! This is my first post at gradcafe, and I really hope to get an insight on everyone's experiences at UCLA/USC. I got accepted to advanced standing for USC which allows to me finish school in one year, as well as the 2 year track for UCLA.

Initially, I was certain that I would go to USC but the admissions process hasn't really been that helpful and encouraging. It's led me to question my enrollment after I've already made the 280$ nonrefundable deposit! I understand the admin faculty should not reflect the program quality and hope the program itself is worth it, so I am interested in your experiences at USC and UCLA. The price tag would essentially be the same, since USC adv program is 1 year ~55k, vs UCLA 2 year which comes out to be about the same price. I have yet to hear from UCLA scholarships.
