How do I choose between colleges? Is area an okay deciding factor?
im deciding between George Mason University and Virginia Tech. I want to do Computer Science (at Tech, i have to do gen engineering as a first year and then APPLY to cs meaning i may not get in). I haven't heard from Tech yet but I got accepted into Mason for CS. The area around Mason is more appealing to me since I can go to concerts in DC which is one of my favorite things to do. I can also just live near DC which is a lively city and booming in the CS/UX-design industry which is the career i want to pursue. I LOVEE Tech's campus, but outside of "college town" there is practically nothing. Assuming i get into Tech for my first choice major, how should I choose? what are good things to keep in mind when making the decision? #college #GMU #virginiatech
