UT Austin vs UW for CS

My son is admitted at UT Austin and UW for CS, but in UW it is not DA yet. I was wondering whether it is worth it to gamble in UW or select UT that has slot for CS. Thank you

Take UT Austin. Don’t gamble. Straight from UW’s website on admission to majors:

UT Austin is equally as good as UW for CS.

@bouders thank you for your straightforward answer. I will take it into consideration for my son. Have a good day.

University of Texas at Austin is the only option for CS if not a direct admit as a freshman at Univ. of Washington in Seattle.

I would definitely pick UT! The CS program at UT is very competitive (read: impossible to transfer into) and I don’t think you should gamble that.
