I am an international graduate applicant. I have applied for Masters of Computer Science program in USA. I have got 2 admits - New Jersey Institute of technology and California state University Sacramento(4 prerequisite). I am confused which University should i go with.
How good are the reviews about Sacramento based on professor, coursework, internships?
Please guide me.
Sac is a good school - they have a strong CS program and is about 100 miles from SF and the Silicon Valley - tech central. They have an on-campus partnership with the FBI focused on cyber-crime. The city of Sac is undergoing a bit of a renaissance, with lots of downtown development around the new Kings arena. The campus is adjacent the American River and the area has bike trails and lots of outdoor recreation opportunities.
I have never heard of NJIT - so I can’t comment on what they have to offer.
Are you going to have to take out loans? Will one be cheaper than the other?
I am from CA but I think NJIT has a better reputation for tech.
Went to Sac State for a semester. Apparently known for nursing anf criminal justice.
As far as student life it is simultaneously a commuter school but also has many organizations , on campus activities, etc to get involved with.
I loved all four of my professors there.
Like someone posted above, it’s not far at all from the Bay Area.
