Got Admitted Now what ?

<p>Hi everyone, this is my first post on CC, hopefully not my last. So, now I am currently in the senior year of my High School, will graduate in May 2011. I am from India and I applied to many colleges in the US and Canada. I want to do Computer Engineering, the major factor while short-listing colleges was to join the one that has a game development lab. I gave all my SAT's ( got a 2030) and TOEFL iBT (105/120) and finally applied to a dozen universities :P.</p>

<p>I got admitted to all, I did my research, still can't Decide on one. It would be great if someone could assist me in finally choosing one.</p>

<p>So here it goes :</p>

<ol>
<li>Mcgill University - Canada </li>
<li>U of Waterloo - Canada USD 5,000 Schol</li>
<li>UIUC * - I didn't get comp engg here, got into an undeclared major division :S
4.Purdue
5.Penn State</li>
<li>U wash , seattle</li>
<li>FIT USD 12,000 Schol</li>
<li>RIT USD 10,000 Schol</li>
<li>DREXEL - USD 16,000 Schol</li>
<li>IIT USD 16,000 Schol </li>
<li>Umass Amherst USD 10,000 Schol</li>
</ol>

<p>I didn't apply to the ivy's and those similar to the ivy's (CMU UCLA UCSD UCB etc.) because of the financial constraints. My parents can pay a max of USD 35 grand a year not more than that, and I seriously want to attend a good college. getting into a college with a gaming lab is not compulsory, but just a bonus.</p>

<p>It will be AMAZING if ANYONE COULD GUIDE ME, someone who's a <em>veteran</em> if you know what I mean ;)</p>

<p>Thanks a lot .</p>

<p>What does Waterloo tuition end up being? They have a world-renowned computer science department. Probably the cheapest option too, isn’t it?</p>

<p>Waterloo is awesome for computers, but sadly the final annual fees is the same as that of the usual american universities, 40 grand including everything, tuition, books, supplies, residence and other misc expenses, considering i got a 5 grand scholarship, it is in budget but still a tad bit tight, anything near 30 grand would be absolutely perfect.</p>
