Your parents' money are NOT free money.


Why not? I mean, I guess you can count it as less money they have when they roll over and die in a number of decades and leave you inheritance.

Don't know what it's like in the US. In Canada it barely matters where you went to school. Going to a good school will give you good networking opportunities, but not $100k worth and nothing you couldn't overcome.


This reminds me of another related consideration you should be checking out. For example, the University of Toronto has a bit of prestige, but the competition there is completely insane. A 3.0 GPA there is like a 4.0 GPA most other places.

If you're looking to go to grad school, you'd need a GPA around 3.8 most likely. It may be the case that UCSD is a bit like the U of T in terms of difficulty. Grad schools aren't going to look at the name of the school on your application, just your GPA.


This is false. Grad schools care about what program you were in. Employers even moreso.

Going to a good school is definitely worth it. Going to a prestigious, rich kid school is not. The best thing you can do right now is focus on what schools get the most companies coming to hire their students. If you're doing college visits, talk to their CS students, if possible. Get a feel for the place from people who aren't trying to sell you a product, but the buyers.

I honestly do not know what to say about this reply.

$30k a year for undergraduate in-state residency? Holy fuck balls. Did they calculate base on the overpriced dormitary cost or something? Never knew a state college cost so much for in-state residency.

I guess if you're the go-getter type, you'll make it happen whether your parents spent 10k or 100k in your education.


I assume that is California he is talking about. I am not too surprised.

That is including expensive on campus housing. :|

http://students.ucsd.edu/finances/financial-aid/budgeting/undergrad-20112012.html

A bit less than 30k for UCSD, a bit more than 30k for UCSB, a lot more for UCLA.
