<p>Be sure to check for academic suitability. For example, Davidson’s CS course offerings are fairly limited, not a good sign for a prospective CS major. See <a href=“Mathematics and Computer Science”>http://www.davidson.edu/academics/mathematics-and-computer-science/computer-science-courses</a> . Occidental’s CS course offerings are even more limited, and CS is only offered as a minor there. See <a href=“http://www.oxy.edu/academics/course-catalog/computer-science#courses”>http://www.oxy.edu/academics/course-catalog/computer-science#courses</a> .</p>
<p>Quality CS major degree programs exist at many schools, but the school’s overall prestige and selectivity level is not an accurate guide in determining the quality of the CS major degree program. Check catalogs and schedules to see how extensive the junior/senior level CS course offerings are.</p>
