CMU Silicon Valley vs. UCLA

Graduate School
1

<p>Hey y'all,</p>

<p>I am deciding between CMU Silicon Valley and UCLA for a master's in computer science. I just wanted to know what everyone thinks of the two institutions with respect to computer science. I know CMU in Pittsburgh is a phenomenal CS school, but I do not know much about CMU in Silicon Valley. Could anyone shed some light?</p>

<p>I appreciate it a lot!</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Both sound attractive. What does the assistantship scene look like for you? Do you think you might get one? If so, just follow the money.</p>

<p>If no assistantship, go to UCLA if you are a California resident. It will certainly be cheaper than CMUSV.</p>

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>Thanks for the reply! I did receive an assistantship for CMU but it is not much in relation to the overall tuition. Disregarding price, what are your thoughts on the two programs?</p>

<p>Did you sign up for the open houses?</p>

<p>No, I can’t make the open house. I will still be in school and I actually have a final that day haha. </p>

<p>@LongPrime are you going??</p>

<p>They do have 2 open houses. </p>

<p>I am not a CMU student. I am a parent of a CMU BS’06,</p>
