<p>Just be forewarned: the posters above who attend UChicago are most likely severely biased both in terms of their natural school loyalty and their limited viewpoint. Obviously, the CS program is not bad at Chicago, but the point still stands that there are many better schools for CS to go to. Sure, some people go to top companies in the industry from UChicago, but I guarantee you that many more are from MIT/Stanford.</p>
<p>That being said, you certainly wouldn’t be unhappy or even necessarily much worse off at UChicago, as the above posters outlined. In undergrad, a lot of what you get out is what you put in. In terms of classes and education, there shouldn’t be a big difference. What really matters is the level of students (very important IMO), the research opportunities, and the atmosphere - all places in which UChicago is lacking in. </p>
<p>Personally, I’ve been accepted into Chicago (not necessarily going), and plan on at least double-majoring in CS.</p>
