CSUF or UCI for Computer Engineering?

I am currently a community college student and I am looking into majoring in computer engineering. There are two options that I have thought about for transferring.

CSUF has a integrated B.S./M.S. Computer Engineering program.

UCI has a B.S. Computer Engineering program.

Which one would be the best to pursue? These schools are picked due to the convenience of being close to where I live. I live closer to CSUF and the drive to UCI isn’t that bad. I am kind of stumped because CSUF is offering a integrated B.S./M.S. program which is attracting but UCI is attracting because of it’s reputation compared to CSUF. Any input would be helpful. Thanks!

The right answer is both. Use the TAG program to get a ‘guaranteed’ admission to UCI, and apply to CSUF’s program. If possible, take the required classes for both. Decide after you’ve been admitted. Both will offer a very good education and strong job prospects.
Good luck.
