I am not sure yet. My sister is out of state at ASU (30k ish tuition). That being said because my parents see my focus for CS and realize how quickly I will be paying back debt compared to a music degree they are willing to pay more for my education. They actually are allowing me to consider WPI (60k ish tuition).
So I would say for now I am just pretending money is not a factor. However if a school has a high tuition with mediocre computer science i’d throw that out. Mediocre computer science with cheep tuition I will still consider.
It is a plus if the school is eligable for the Scholarship For Service (Computer security) program as I hope to go for that.
