Tuition for Computer Science

<p>Tuition is one of my problems when studying in US. What do you think about the tuition of Computer Science Major? Is it much more than other majors?</p>

<p>Depends on where you study it. Many (most?) colleges charge a flat-rate tuition fee for all majors, and maybe add lab fees for lab courses. Among the colleges that discriminate tuition by major, expect to pay more if computer science is part of the engineering division. </p>

<p>Also don't disqualify a college completely based on its sticker price. Some colleges award financial aid to international students, either in the form of merit scholarships or need-based aid. For example, if you have an SAT score > 1300 (verbal + math) or ACT > 29, there are a number of full-tuition scholarships you might qualify for. There are only very few colleges that award merit scholarships that pay for your living expenses in addition to tuition. (The University of New Orleans being one of them.) If you need help with your living expenses too, you could look at colleges providing need-based aid. However, most of the colleges awarding need-based aid to international students are either hyper-selective (Harvard & Co) or small liberal arts colleges which typically have only very limited offerings in computer science. </p>

<p>Btw, have you considered posting all your computer science questions in one thread rather than starting a new thread for each one?</p>
