[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NEU co op program is a real plus.   If your kids can get into NEU on the Boston campus from freshman year (not one of their many satellite campuses) I would do that.  Otherwise do BU for CS.  BC is a pass as it is not as strong as the other two for CS and is not in Boston.  [/quote]

BU for CS? Since when?? Never heard of this. Cite please?? [/quote]

NP...never heard of BU offering CS?  I've seen the program top 75 in multiple rankings. School just completed construction of a MONSTER data science/computing building. [/quote]

Exactly.  That is what makes this OP flat out FRAUDULENT. [/quote]

It just opened in 2022 - it is not exactly established. [/quote]
NP. BU had a CS program long before the new building opened... [/quote]

But historically, BU has not been known for their CS. [/quote]

The school may not be in the top 10-30 for computer science and is known for excelling in other fields, but its CS program has been consistently strong. Historically, they have ranked between 30th and 60th, and they have successfully placed students in IT companies.

With the addition of this new building, I believe the program will continue to thrive in the coming years.[/quote]

Right, you can't go wrong with BU at all if you like other factors about BU and the vibe.
If you really like the BC campus and such, no particular interest in an area, and just want a CS degree, you can't go wrong with BC as well.
However, again NU would be the winner overall in general.[/quote]
