Hi College Confidential,

I will be graduating from Vtech this summer with a degree in Business and am looking to get a second major in computer science. I am still debating if I should stay at Vtech and get a compsci degree or go to GMU and get it there.
If I go to GMU or Vtech, they will both take about 1.5 to 2 years to complete.

I love the NOVA/DC area and not a big fan of rural Blacksburg that’s why I am debating if I should go to GMU.

Is GMU’s compsci program comparable to Vtechs in terms of job placement and quality of education? I know Vtech has a good program and gets offers from microsoft/amazon/etc but how is GMU compsci job placement?
