How much will each cost you? Since you need basically as much money as posisble that needs to be your focus

So far I can say that,

RIT is 19k/yr
WPI 25k/yr
Rutgers Still waiting on offer --> on average, 7k/yr according to FAFSA but not sure if this average includes in state
Richmond is a lot of process since they require my parent's marital status to be married-seperate, but my father filed as single. (my mother is Thai btw) 14k/yr maybe on average
Emory: 10k/yr on average, but I haven't gotten in yet 😭

yeah, ignore Emory

maybe richmond? But if you want to do CS don't worry about business, you don't need to study it in undergrad
