<p>I have a full ride to some smaller schools, but since I am going into computer science I feel like it would be a better idea to go to a more prestigious schools such as UNC-CH or NC State (#20 and #49 respectively in US News computer science program rankings). The CS programs at the colleges I have full rides to are not very impressive. I plan to pursue a doctorate in computer science regardless of where I get my undergrad degree. Would I be more likely to be accepted into better computer science graduate programs if my undergrad degree is from UNC-CH or NC State, or do graduate programs even take this into consideration? What DO they take into consideration?</p>
