Hi everyone, I was admitted to these three schools for computer science: Yale, Northeastern, and NYU. With financial aid, they are all in a similar range with Yale and Northeastern being slightly cheaper than NYU. I know that Yale is an IVY but I’ve heard bipolar opinions about the CS program and that it is not up there, while I’ve heard about Northeastern’s curriculum being undergrad focused, and they have Co-ops as well. However, being that Yale is an Ivy, I would have a lot more opportunities to participate in different areas.

My research and understanding of these schools may be wrong, so I would like to ask for your help.

Between these three colleges, which would the best in terms of CS curriculum, rigor, extracurricular opportunities, recruiting, and career prospects?

Thank you for any advice!
