Looking for schools good in Comp Sci and Music

@compmom: I have no idea, I assume that as a transfer Jake would start at the 200-level, but St Olaf is strong in music and their CS program looks good to me, which is why I’d recommended it in an earlier post (the long post above was answerig Rayrick who wondered why I find St Olaf a good choice for CS - I typically recommend it for CS/math, CS/music, etc.) Only Jake would know whether their proposed sequence would work for him.

@jake11235 : I do think you should stick it out at URochester, but
1° purchase a sunlight lamp against SAD

2° See if you could study abroad Spring 2017 (as the gloomiest days are January-March)… or full year next year. Ask your adviser if there are good study abroad programs for CS majors. You’d probably need a direct enrollment program in an English-speaking country. See if Australia or New Zealand are available! :slight_smile: Or, see if there are domestic (“study away”) exchange programs in sunnier places (California?) It’ll go very fast and you’ll find that you are happy to be returning “home” at URochester.
