[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It should ultimately come down to fit. However the DOE says GT CS grads make 110k while UVA grads make 108k.  That's very close and considering UVA costs less and is the more prestigious school, I would go with that. [/quote]

UVA is not the more prestigious school in STEM.[/quote]
Clearly doesn't need to be, just needs to be prestigious in general.  [/quote]

It isn't in general either.[/quote]

No dog in this fight. But can't think of anymore undergrad rankings.

Apples to oranges. The thing you guys have in common is that you don’t understand what kind of school GT is.  It’s like saying you want to be a submarine captain but you’re going to go to Penn-Wharton because it’s higher ranked than the Naval Academy. [/quote]
No it's not, a sub captain is very niche. CS is not and can be taught anywhere. Intact those faang companies your kids want so bad don't even require degrees anymore, just certs. [/quote]

GT is a niche school. Those of you who only care about rankings are going to be very surprised by your GT rejection.[/quote]
So why do you think a niche school raked 44 is better than a comprehensive one ranked 25? [/quote]
