<p>ok so im trying to decide between JMU or GMU. I am about to get my Associates in Computer Science from NVCC (community college). I live about 40 min away from Mason and 75min away from Jmu. </p>

<p>Here is my debacle. I really dont want to stay home for my next 2 years in college i want to go away. Ive hated my time at Nvcc but i have a 3.8 and the college was good. So i know i can get into both schools under guarantee agreements. Also the cost close enough for that not to matter. </p>

<p>I want to go to Jmu bc it has a better social life. Its a good school but i know alot of people part there. It also isnt the BEST of the BEST when it comes to computer science (i might double major in computer enginerring too).</p>

<p>I want to go to GMU because i know it has a better computer science program than JMU. Its a really good IT school. But i live really close to it. I know the area, and i feel like i would get bored there quick.</p>

<p>Where should i go???????</p>

<p>I plan on going on to get my MA at Mason either way, so if that helps any.</p>

<p>I think Mason would be the better option; if you’re really tired of living in the same area, just travel a lot during breaks.</p>

<p>… travel a lot during breaks? i can do that now and i really don’t like the lifestyle i have now. the only place to go to really is DC and ugh i hate DC. i actually did a lot of discussing in another thread and I’m pretty set on JMU. Thanks tho. </p>
