anything else, dts
i wouldn't say so

CMU has CS, then business, then ai

like in general private schools will give you better opportunities than public schools
velvet crescent
Ucla can’t beat CMU in business and ai

i am saying just by pure academics/rankings
obviously each school has a lot more to it
random elm
theater too
sweet horizon
however that's not a reason to pay like double the price for privates
vagrant niche
also ucla too overcrowded
sweet horizon
if the cost is comparable, i'd choose a private school over public
sweet horizon
also ucla too overcrowded
yeah ^
vagrant niche
theater, business, cs, ai, ECE, majority of engineering majors, fine arts, theatre, drama
CMU wins
sweet horizon
ucla and cmu are both great schools so if you're choosing between them (comparable cost) i'd look at all the non-academic aspects
student life, culture, access to internships in the area, academic advising, student organizations, safety of the surrounding area, etc
ok not non-academic aspects, i meant don't consider the rankings

“Admission Decision Update
While some decisions began releasing early on March 15 and will continue over the next two weeks, applicants who have not yet received a decision can expect to receive an email notification that a decision is available in the portal no later than April 1, which is our typical deadline. Our team acknowledges the anxiety and excitement that comes with college admission decisions and we thank you for your patience while we work to meticulously release decisions.”
