[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Besides CS, UMD is a far superior engineering school. So even if in CS they have options in other related areas such as robotics/industrial engg etc.. [/quote]
+1 UVA boosters are fooling themselves.[/quote]

[b]Do CS grads from UMD make more money than CS grads from UVA?  The answer is no it is pointless to have this discussion.[/quote]
Overall, yes, actually, they do.[/b]

Do CS UVA grads make more than CS VA tech grads? If the answer is no then why pay $$ for UVA when VTech is so much cheaper?[/quote]

According to statistics they do and yes it does matter where you go to it has an impact on your lifetime earnings.[/quote]

Ok. statistics are based on those who self-report so many don't self-report.  We'd never report that kind of information.  Both are excellent schools and OP should be proud.  The decision should be personality based off the campus and what the school has to offer.[/quote]
Then any metric that looks at earnings is questionable.

No, both are not excellent schools for CS. Only UMD is T20. UVA is not.  That makes it fine, but not excellent for CS.

Some people like urban areas, and some don't.  So why would UVA be better when it's in the middle of nowhere?[/quote]

Who cares about those rankings but you.  Both very good schools.[/quote]
[b]UVA boosters are always bringing up the rankings.[/quote][/b]

Actually, they don't.  and it was a UMD booster who did it above[/quote]
