Current Oxy students:

What are the biggest flaws of the University compared to other schools and in general?

& on a scale of 1-10, how spacious/nice are the dorms? Fun things to do around campus? Is there good financial aid?

Current USD students...

What are the biggest flaws of the University compared to other schools and in general?

& on a scale of 1-10, how spacious/nice are the dorms? Fun things to do around campus? Is there good financial aid?

Financial aid sucks. They only gave me $10k in institutional aid and scholarships and they expected me to pay the other $40k with my own money, which I couldn't afford.

I'm a current student, and my financial aid package was incredible and covered over 35,000, it all depends on your FAFSA, so I wouldn't listen to the previous comment. Obviously, one flaw is how expensive it is but they give great scholarships.

I'd give the dorms a 9/10, with the Valley and Maher at a 10 and only Camino/Founders less than ideal.

Ifalzon: How are dorms assigned? Is it common for freshman to get stuck with the Camino/Founders dorms because they're underclassman?

I am a new student transferring to USD. From what I've been told and what I have researched the dorms are beautiful, the people are friendly, and the school's atmosphere is great. There is a lot of financial aid available at the USD.
