Caldwell/UNO vs NITs.. Advice needed Urgently!!

<p>Hey CCers.. Unfortunately I didn't get into any decent colleges and I don't have hopes from any colleges whatsoever who waitlisted me. StillI got some safeties which offered me full or near full tution aid but they are 2nd-3rd tier colleges like Caldwell and UNO. Also I heard there is a risk of visa denial for those who have a I20 above 10k. Is it true?</p>

<p>The thing is, my major will be Comp Science/engg or IT depending on the colleges and I doubt if the risk is worth taking. Paying 14-16k per year for a safety or going for a decent NIT and pursuing CSE without any financial stress. Please guys who have been in this situation help me choose a path.</p>

<p>P.S If there is anyone sure on attending Caldwell PM me...</p>
