Programmer here…loans means budget is a factor. It’s good that you have UT on the list, but getting into UT and getting into their computer science major are two vastly different things. They routinely turn down top students for CS. It’s never a safety school. The rest are either out of state or private schools. Costs for that are going to be anywhere between 60k to 100k a year. Being a parent myself, that’s going to be a massive strain on any budget.
I would add Texas A&M on the list and name a few safety schools like Texas Tech or University of Houston. All are well recruited schools for CS.
Here’s the great part of going into computer science. Prestige is completely meaningless. In fact, after about 3 years work experience, employers don’t even ask where you went to school, because it’s not relevant. Virtually all of your credentials will be built on the job over time.
