Carnegie Mellon University.

Only computer science students are interested in it. Which is why the Carnegie Mellon Computer Science acceptance rate is like 5%.

But I’m a little confused at it’s reputation:

Adult: What school do you want to go to?
Me: Carnegie Mellon
Adult: Oh are you into the arts? That’s what CMU is famous for.

Costa Rican freshman at Yale: Where do you want to go?
Me: Carnegie Mellon
Costa Rican freshman at Yale: Oh, I don’t know that school. I’m so obsessed with Ivy.

Teenager: What school do you hope to get into?
Me: Carnegie Mellon
Teenager: For computer science? Thought so. My sister wants to go to Carnegie Mellon for CompSci. But it’s sooo hard to get in.

Anywho, I think Carnegie Mellon deserves a little more recognition. Have you seen the movie Big Hero 6? Even Disney does research at CMU. I think CMU may be slowly getting more popular.
