Cost of Living @ USC
Adi, who graduated from USC with MS in Biotechnology sent this small write up that explains typical cost of living for a student from India at University of Southern California ( LA)
Cost of living in Los Angeles is pretty high when compared to most of the other US cities. Since, USC is located in downtown LA you need to make sure you live in a safe area. This should be the most concern and priority.
Usually a studio apartment in a safe neighborhood around USC will cost around $1200 and a single bedroom will be around $1300-$1500. I would say after sharing you need atleast $400 (max) for rent. Apart, for normal living another $200 can add-up. So approximately you will end-up spending $600 every month.
Students in studying in Texas spend around $250 to $400 per month. If you have more questions about USC, leave a comment to this article, he will add more detail to your queries. Also, you can read about Adi’s Biotechnology Job Search experience in 3 Parts.
