| If you are doing CS I would recommednd going to CMU. Aside from being #1 (blah, blah, blah) they are currently building The Gates Center dedicated entirely to the CS school. Also, don't buy into the stigma that is associated with CS majors at CMU. While the generalizations do exist, a lot of people I have met there are in CS and are really cool, sociable people. Pittsburgh is also a great college town with a lot of things to do. However, if you are looking for a more bucolic campus and that sense of classic "prestige" that ivy-league schools offer, then Cornell is also a solid option. Congratulations on getting into both. |
