<p>It’s never a bad idea to ask if the computer science program is accredited. ABET accredits both computer science and computer engineering programs. A good search engine for finding ABET programs is available at <a href=“http://www.tryengineering.org%5B/url%5D”>www.tryengineering.org</a>, but you can also search the ABET website, <a href=“http://www.abet.org%5B/url%5D”>www.abet.org</a></p>
<p>I also know that some people feel that a B.S. in computer science is more marketable than a B.A. (This may or may not be true, but is something that some folks care about). Unfortunately, many Liberal arts schools will have BA programs, not BS programs, so that’s something to keep in mind if this concerns you.</p>
<p>Another liberal arts school with an excellent computer science program is Allegheny College in western PA.</p>
