I received notification that I became a Chancellor’s scholar at Vanderbilt, so my tuition will be paid but room and board will not. I also received notification that I am a Turing Scholar at UT. I am interested in majoring in CS and like UT’s program, but know that Vanderbilt is more renowned as a university. Since both of them will now be similar in price, I was wondering which one would be better for CS. I am more interested in pursuing a graduate or doctorate degree and know that undergrad is not as important, but still I would like to know your opinions.
Take a tour if possible and see which is more right. classroom size will be one of the major differences between the two institutions. You need to know which is more right for you and your learning style. Both are great places to be and will get you where you want to go.
