I’ve always heard that California is the best for majoring in CS, but I don’t want to venture that far and would rather look into colleges near me (the northeast) yes, I know of MIT, CMU, and all those very prestigious colleges but I’m not at that level lol. Are there any other schools with reputable CS programs (like a tier below CMU, etc)?
Lots, such as UMass Amherst, Rutgers, Stony Brook, among many others.
Northeastern, WPI, and RPI have amazing programs with great regional reputations that are even known nationally.
Great suggestions by @PengsPhils. Maybe look at Lehigh, Stevens, RIT, and Drexel, too.
All great schools suggested by @dadinator in the same category. There’re so many good tech-focused schools in the northeast. Don’t believe that it’s California or nothing: Boston for one is becoming a huge tech hub.
Rutgers
UMASS
Drexel
RPI
University of Maryland
Stevens(due to location: you can seeNYC across he river)
Justto name a few
“RIT ranked among the top U.S. computer science and engineering schools” See https://www.rit.edu/news/story.php?id=52919
