Nothing against the UC’s, but why would you go all the way across the country when you have perfectly good schools in Georgia? Are you getting Hope scholarship in Georgia? Did you apply to GT?
For some reason my son kept getting contacts from UC-Riverside, and we looked in California a tiny bit (mainly because I love California LOL). We ultimately decided that it’s too far and too expensive. But the real zinger is that CS appears to be an “impacted” major which means you’re not guaranteed a slot in the program (?).
You could think of saving California schools for grad school?
