Hi all,
I have got accepted to both UC Irvine in their school of Computer Science and University of Wisconsin- Madison in their computer science program for a BS degree. I am very confused as to which college to go to because they both have their ups and downs. I have in-state tuition for UCI and out of state for UW-Madison. I need to hear some opinions before I can make a decision by May 1st.
Thank you
Both of these are fine for your academic goals. What is the cost difference, and how would you cover it for U-WI? What would your projected travel costs be, and would you need to get a whole new winter wardrobe for WI? Compared to much of CA, the winters in WI will be brutal.
These are two very good CS schools. You can’t go wrong, except with the money.
What would you need to take out in loans for each one? I suspect it’ll be WAY less for Irvine. My strong suspicion is that you should to to Irvine, as it should be so much cheaper.
@RoaringMice @happymomof1 I will be paying around $32,000 for UC Irvine and for UW-Madison I will be paying $53,000. both of the colleges offered a $5,500 unsubsidized loan
