lol GT is plenty prestigious my friend. 12% overall acceptance rate and 8-9% acceptance rate. Next example.

Unless instate go with the T25 private.

Not exactly, for CS, GT is better than many T25. Even OOS tuition is still much lower than privates.

Better academically, doesn't mean better outcomes. Some companies will not recruit at GT or UIUC etc for CS roles because they arent top schools overall.

But what really caught my eye. Overall Median Salaries for both schools and annual cost to attend caught my eye. Wow

https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/school?139658-Emory-University
Median Salary All graduates - $80,137
Average Annual Cost to Attend - $23,911

https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/school?139755-Georgia-Institute-of-Technology-Main-Campus
Median Salary All graduates - $102,772
Average Annual Cost to Attend $13,289

This isnt the brag you think it is. Emory doesn't have any engineering majors. Its CS program is small like you said.

lol you keep moving the goal post. It's not that it's small it's just not very good ranked at #65

Prestige only applies to Top 10 or IVY. After that, best ranked program.

Missouri has an excellent journalism program

+1 - lots of terrific media programs at non "prestige" schools - Mizzou, ASU, Syracuse. Would you go to major in philosophy? No. But great pipelines for journalism.

PP - from the above article

That professional path began at Morgan Stanley.

More specifically, it began at a career event on campus (UIUC) where three representatives from Morgan Stanley presented. Subramanian stood in the back, absorbing the information but uncertain if he was a fit for any type of role in the financial sector.
