So if I studied in a baccalaureate college, and I am majoring in computer science. I can expect to have more Focus on particular subject only(Computer science). Right?

Possibly but not necessarily. Every college or university has its own curriculum. I think you are better off researching several dozen potential colleges than relying on an arbitrary US News classification. FYI, you would probably get the most specialized computer science education at a National University in the US News classification because big universities have more resources and bigger computer science departments than small colleges. And the top colleges in the National Universities and Liberal Arts Colleges sections are much more selective (and “prestigious”) than the top Baccalaureate Colleges.
