I am looking at big schools with good computer science. I’m from Massachusetts so umass Amherst is on my list but it is probably gonna be a reach. I have a 3.3 gpa with a 1210 sat. I also would love to go to Virginia tech but I know that might be a reach with my scores. Are there are good big schools I can get into with my scores that are good with computer science.
What is your financial situation?
Let’s act like it doesn’t matter cause I’m just looking for ideas
Affordability matters. I’m sure there are many schools that kids with good stats could get accepted to, but if they can’t pay then the acceptance doesn’t mean much.
You can input your stats on the College Board search site. You should be able to generate a list of schools that way.
It wastes our time to throw unaffordable choices. Most students are very constrained by cost. No point in daydreaming – so finances need to be understood early.
Your chances of getting in a large school with decent CS go way up if you are willing to go to school in the south or in the middle of the country. Try Mississippi State, Louisville, Kansas, Kansas State, Nebraska & Oklahoma State.
Univ of Cincinnati, MI State, Temple. Possibly Purdue or NC State.

And I would prefer schools in the northeast because I don’t want to pay out of state tuition if I don’t have to.

Cost matters. Why waste your time on schools you can’t afford. Instead let us know the situation so that we can give you ideas that are possible.
