My name is Sergio Mora and I am currently a tenth grader at Judy Burton tech. As I prepare myself for the future I currently have researched three colleges that I am interested in attending in the future, those three are the University Of Southern California, Art Institutes Of California Hollywood, and Cal State North ridge. As I looked into these colleges I noticed that there were many similarities for example both USC and Cal State North Ridge are public schools and they both have around 35-36,00 students attending. I also saw that Cal State North Ridge and the Art Institutes have a similar grade point average because both colleges require at least a 2.0 or better. A difference I noticed is that the retention rates for each school are different because USC has a rate at 97% and the other two colleges 75-78%. these were some similarities and differences between the colleges.
