i was rejected to lehigh in the past so i dont think im going to reapply there, im planning on completely reapplying. I moved to California after living in New York for 17 years, this May to finish up high school and start my computer certification program that I'm currently doing (which also sets me up with a 1 year contract job). The thing about USC is i dont think i would get in..but yeah maybe I'll still apply...I never took the SAT II's so im pretty sure that will count me out. I'm not really interested in going to the SUNY's even though I probably would still get instate tuition, I'm looking for a strong comp sci program (USC's is incredible). Also yes Ive considered RPI but after living in a city bordering troy, and going to the campus often, i know too much about it to ever want to go there..

So you finished high school in CA in June 2008. Your "gap year" will be this coming year. I get it now.

I was referring to University of South Carolina in my post...not University of Southern California. U of South Carolina might be attainable for you.

I do think that the option of working and having your tuition paid is a great option for you if finances are a serious consideration.
