University of Minnesota V/S Texas A&M University

<p>Okay guys it all comes down to this.</p>

<p>I am intenational Undergrad.
Majoring in Computer Science.
Admits from both.</p>

<p>Global excellence scholarship from Minnesota so i guess ill be paying instate Tution there.</p>

<p>Texas A&M no such scholarship but as far as I've heard I can get an Instate status from the 2nd sem if i do well which I'm bound to.</p>

<p>Which should i choose?
I like both and have no personal preference.</p>

<p>I wanna know about anything future prospects, people(considering im International).</p>

<p>These 2 are the final choices for me so please SOS.</p>

<p>UMinn. Larger more international friendly city vs small town. But COLD weather so be ready for that. UMInn better school (slightly).</p>

<p>*Texas A&M no such scholarship but as far as I’ve heard I can get an Instate status from the 2nd sem if i do well which I’m bound to.

<p>Why would that be?</p>

<p>Congrats!</p>

<p>check the ranking:
[NRC</a> Rankings in Computer Science](<a href=“http://www.stat.tamu.edu/~jnewton/nrc_rankings/area29.html]NRC”>NRC Rankings in Computer Science)</p>

<p>A&M is 61 and UMinn is 45.
Maybe UMinn is good for you according to their academics. I have schoolmates there and they told me that its good.</p>

<p>I see UMinn is slightly better. But how do you like snow and cold days? I prefer to live in TX coz I love their climate!</p>

<p>Well i have friends there at TAMU and they told me that a $1000 scholarship from any department makes you eleigible for istate tution.</p>

<p>Thank You for all the help.</p>
