Now I understand. The scorecard ‘salaries after completion’ are actually 3 years after completion. Maybe they changed what they report. Your data is a couple of years old. The Brown number is higher now at $184,762.

Clearly, Brown has a strong, flexible program. Given the OP’s situation, s/he would need to twist himself into a bit of a pretzel to achieve the Penn CS degree. Doesn’t seem worth it.

Penn wants you to apply to the school where your major is. I’ve seen this gamesmanship approach to getting into Penn before with students applying to CAS and then trying to transfer into Wharton. It’s not a good situation for the student. And, at least for internal Wharton transfers, they’re as rare as hen’s teeth.
