<p>Well, the title says it all. I plan to major in CS (or 6-2/6-3 in MIT's case) with a double major or minor in Math, and I'm split between these two. Should I also add that, so far, I've received the Knaster-McWilliams scholarship (full-tuition) for CMU, and that I haven't yet received the MIT financial aid packaged (but am not expecting much from it)? Which school would be best?</p>

<p>If money is a factor, go CMU. If its not, go MIT. Cmu is great, but MIT is worth the brand name.</p>

<p>Based on what I have read, you will be EXTREMELY successful wherever you go. So visit both places, talk to your parents about money, and decide</p>
