Ask A Current Undergraduate - Computer Science & Honors College

Hello! I represent UMass Amherst CICS (College of Information and Computer Sciences) and am happy to answer any questions people have about the university (preferably CS focused!).

I would like to keep this discussion focused around student life, culture, courses, and coop/internship. Not Financial Aid, living arrangements (although I do know a little), and college comparisons.

Ask Away!

Are you in or oos? Where else did you apply and decline to go to Umass for CS? We are attending the admitted student open house in feb, don’t have a feel for the school or program yet

@amsully I too have been admitted to CHC and CS.
How do you find the course and workload? Plus, is it easy to maintain a 3.7+ GPA for the Bay State Fellowship Program?
Also, how is the student life? Are you in a RAP in the CHC complex?
Could you inform me more about the internship/co-op programs, as I have no idea about them?
