USC tuition tops $50K, making it more expensive than some Ivy League campuses

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Future USC Trojans may need to start stashing away their cash because the prestigious school's tuition will now top $50,000.

USC will be among the most expensive universities in the country as tuition hits $51,442 with additional fees of $841.

Ivy League school Harvard charges undergraduates a little less at more than $45,000 in tuition and fees.

The USC provost explains that the bigger tuition bill is because the campus is competing with Stanford and other Ivy League schools around the world, which becomes expensive.
