Schools with good computer science program + very good need-based financial aid?

Besides MIT. I’d never get in there, and if I did I’d fail out.

I can’t remember my exact EFC, but I’m 99% sure that it’s <$3k. The tuition alone at a lot of schools is almost as much or more than my family makes in a year, and I’m not a stellar student so I can’t get into any of the really competitive universities, so finding one that I can afford has proved difficult.

I’d really like it to be a tech school, but it doesn’t have to be. I’d also like it to be out of Florida (where I live), but again it doesn’t have to be. I’ve read that the schools here aren’t super generous with financial aid, though, so yeah.

I really don’t want to be drowning in loans after graduation. Any suggestions?
