<p>My son is trying to chose between the following three colleges. He will likely study computer science in some way – likely a major, but also maybe as a minor – in which case, I am not sure what he will major in at this point. So far, he loves computer science, is kind of a creative type, but also likes programming. He does not love math, but can get through it. So I am not sure that I see him as a programmer.</p>
<p>Here are the schools:</p>
<p>Rutgers (New Brunswick) - (computer science major is part of the liberal arts school - SAS)
University of Massachusetts - (not as highly rated as a school, but CS program rated well)
Binghamton University </p>
<p>What do you know about any of these programs? What should he consider when making this decision? Where might you go if you had these choices? </p>
<p>All schools cost approximately the same thing when one factors in merit aid received. </p>
<p>Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.</p>
