[quote=Anonymous]I think companies/hiring people in the DMV KNOW what GMU com sci program requires and they are comfortable assessing someone with that on their resume. They are probably a little less familiar with a JMU com sci degree. Both can lead to success and if the student has a strong interest in the JMU campus experience, then it would be fine to get a com sci degree there. We have looked at both for my son as well, and ultimately, the quality at GMU, to us, makes it a better choice. But, if my kid was really heart-set on going to JMU, I'd be o.k with that too. There are other schools that I wouldn't be so o.k. with (like High Point or an OOS school like WVU b/c of the cost being higher and the quality being lower). But, if the comparison is JMU vs. GMU, the cost is essentially the same. The quality, number of in-major electives, and industry-familiarity is better at GMU, so I'd go with that. But, the difference is not SO SO huge that JMU couldn't work. [/quote]
