Really excited for him!

When I checked my financial aid, there was a lot of incomplete requirements. Iā€™m not sure if they were just added there today when decisions came out or if they were previously there. Does anybody know by when we need to complete those requirements?

@umpatel: Computer Science and Engineering is accredited by ABET.

For CS, ABET accreditation is not that important in comparison to ME and Civil Engineering programs. Stanfordā€™s CS program is not ABET accredited but would you consider their program inferior??

@umpatel ABET site shows the program as accredited for both computer science and computer engineering criteria.

search on abet dot org by school name.

iā€™m really, REALLY surprised i got in considering my SAT (1210) and ACT (28). i thought my UC essays were horrible, but iā€™m really happy they thought otherwise. i regret not applying to the other UCs now other than UCI!

@gumbymom thanks I thought those are important for post grad etc but thanks for confirming. Stanford not accreditation required other than Stanfordā€¦lol.

Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, and UCSDā€™s CS programs are not accredited either. All top notch world class CS programs.
