CPP or SDSU? Academics vs. College Experience?

I got denied from all the UC’s save for UCR, UCM, and UCSC. At this point, I think SDSU and CPP would be better options for me; I got accepted into computer science at these unis.

CPP is a winner academically… but experience-wise, it can’t hold up to SDSU’s campus, location, and social scene. I’ve also heard that SDSU’s location has many employment opportunities comparable to those around CPP, so I’m not sure how much of an advantage I’d have attending CPP.

SDSU is far from home as well, which I think is great. I need some change in my life. CPP, on the other hand, is a mere 10 minutes away.

But I’m unsure if I want to stick with computer science as my major. The field of biology interests me as well. SDSU has more majors to choose from, but CPP’s majors may hold more weight on my resume in both these fields.

Help me out?
