I am a rising junior and while in California this summer I took advantage and attended four college tours. With Stanford being my favorite over Cal, UCSD, and CalTech I wanted to get even more insight on Stanford to really determine if it’s the college for me.
During the presentation and the tour, I was fascinated by the individualism in each students program, how interdisciplinary your four year at Stanford can be, and how each student is truly an independent learner. I am looking into being a CS major and I was told Stanford had several tracks within the CS field. Systems, game development, and undecided are three I remember. This also looks intriguing, but I want to find out more.
Current Stanford students as well as recent graduates if you could comment explaining what you like (and/or don’t like) about Stanford’s program in terms of education. I thank you in advanced for any information you share.
