<p>Hey, guys.
I get the admission from MS in CS from UIUC and UCLA. Neither of them offer any funding. I was really nagged by doing the decision these days.
I am an international students. So I do not know much about the two schools, especially UIUC.
UIUC got higher rank in computer science and engineering school. And it is easier to get RA/TA position in UIUC and living in UIUC costs less.
Whereas, UCLA got good weather and location. And also higher in overall rank.
Really need help.
I'm not sure about if I will continue to a phd degree. Now I prefer to find a job after graduation if the salary is OK. But phd degree is also possible.</p>
<p>The CS program is UIUC is a lot better from what I know and in graduate school that is the highest priority so I think UIUC should be your choice…</p>
<p>What about job opportunities? UCLA is in the west coast.</p>
<p>Any one got more information about the two schools?</p>
<p>I have a close friend in UIUC who graduated from UIUC and is doing very well…jobs all over the country…UIUC is known for their CS program…so you should be fine…</p>
<p>Don’t think the difference is big…just go wherever you are happy.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot *Brahmin</p>
