[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD was accepted into Stanford REA on Friday. No merit or financial aid of any kind. Also was accepted today to George Mason University, in-state, full-tuition merit scholarship. This was her safety affordable option. Stanford was the stretch.

Which one to choose for a B.S. in Computer Science? The Stanford route is going to cost about $300K more over four years. Is the degree really worth that much more? DH votes for George Mason and to use the savings (including $245K 529) to pay for law school. She is planning to pursue Intellectual Property Law with a STEM B.S.

I am no Stanford fan, but for CS I would always choose Stanford. Congratulations, you've won the lottery. You'd be insane to choose George Mason for CS over Stanford. Why did you even apply? The very top CS students on the entire planet would give anything for an opportunity to study at Stanford. And you're throwing that away for George Mason?

I can't even. That's enough internet for me today. [/quote]
