<p>Hello!</p>

<p>I am an international student from India and am applying to Trinity College (CT) under ED2. I'll be majoring in CS, so I want to know about the quality of their CS program(if you know, with comparison to Lafayette's,) and the job/internship opportunities for CS grads/students. Also, CS at Trinity is not ABET accredited. I do know CS doesn't require it and top schools(Harvard, CMU, etc) don't have it, but since this Trinity College isn't as well-known as they are, will I face difficulties in finding jobs and going to grad schools?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot!</p>

<p>This is their degree requirements: <a href=“http://www.trincoll.edu/Academics/MajorsAndMinors/Computer/Documents/B.S.%20in%20CS%20requirements.pdf[/url]”>http://www.trincoll.edu/Academics/MajorsAndMinors/Computer/Documents/B.S.%20in%20CS%20requirements.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>And this is their courses: [Course</a> Descriptions](<a href=“http://www.trincoll.edu/Academics/MajorsAndMinors/Computer/Pages/Course.aspx]Course”>http://www.trincoll.edu/Academics/MajorsAndMinors/Computer/Pages/Course.aspx)</p>

<p>If anybody can tell me how strong their CS program is based on these, that would be good.</p>

<p>I don’t know about Trinty’s CS program, but Lafayette’s CS department is extremely small. My son applied there because he really liked the school overall, but we felt the department was too small and limited.
Both of these schools are very good, but not well-known on a national level.</p>
