<p>@kateheart‌ Just another vote for CMU- an obviously great CS school but strong in the arts (including Drama) as well.</p>

<p>I don’t totally ‘get’ BXA [edit: now I do] but the HCI secondary major looks very interesting for a visual arts-oriented student that is contemplating CS:</p>

<p>And CMU has a great School of Design that has an undergraduate program of some sort:</p>

<p>As @dividerofzero‌ said I think CMU might be an academic match even with low math grades and good but not great math test scores, and I’m hoping myself that being female is a little bit of a hook at CMU.</p>
