<p>@concernedmom27. My son has decided to go to iowa state for computer science. We are from N.J. So you can imagine the responses we get. He got accepted into all the schools he applied to but Iowa state just seemed right to him and to me. I also feel like its a hidden gem. It will be cheaper for him to go there then our state school but with more to offer. I’m glad he doesn’t care what people think and I certainly don’t. I knew in the beginning of the process I was going to just make decisions based on what was right for him and told him not to let anyone else influence his choice. In the end he was the one who was going to be at the school experiencing it. In the end I think they will realize what a wise decision we made. The most important thing is that its the right school for your child. If their not happy they will not succeed. Good luck with your decision. </p>
