Consider that if, for some reason, your parents simply can't honestly afford USC, there will be a fallback position. Otherwise, you won't be able to go anywhere in the Fall. It's not a bad $100 to lose. It offers options.
I don't know your parents, but I would like to think that they want to do the very best they can for you.
The other thing that I can't help wondering is this. You seem to enjoy chatting with Greeks -- how would it be possible to rush and pledge if all spendable dollars are being used for college costs? GLO's are not inexpensive. Would it be better going to a less expensive school and being able to be in a sorority than going to a super expensive school and missing out on the opportunity?
Which would make you happier?
I hate to have to bring this stuff up. It would be so much nicer to just say congratulations again. But sitting in the parents seat can cast a more ominous light on things.
I'm sorry -- I hope things can work out so you will all be happy.
It's a terrible time for everyone.

Thanks DeltAlum. Pretty much posted everything I was thinking.
