@uf2019 I agree with your assessment of the UF CS department. I believe that in-state, UCF arguably as a better program especially if the student is a member of the Programming Team or the Hacking Team. Both are consistently ranked higher than UF’s teams in national competitions. My daughters are both interested in studying CS. Both have been accepted at UF, UCF and GA Tech. Only one applied to MIT and found out today that she was accepted. We are still waiting to hear from a few more schools for each but it’s going to be a tough decision. My daughter who was accepted at MIT also received one of the merit scholarships at UF which stacks with Benacquisto so I’ll have to see if UCF might be able to come up with something comparable for her. Both are leaning toward UCF if they stay in-state and would consider the other out-of-state programs.
