I am going to West Virginia University and wondered how their CS program is. Anybody have a ranking or a list or just personal experience?
 
42 is the magical number on the forums when someone is requesting any number or answers😉

Does US News rank undergraduate programs like that? For some reason I thought they that for graduate schools only.

You're right but I think you can get some info from the graduate rankings.
 
Are you interested in BS or MS or PHD?

Do you have a particular sub speciality that you are interested in? ie computer engineering?

Here are some very good CS programs ( no particular order)

MIT
Caltech
Carnegie Mellon
Stanford
Univ of Illinois
SUNY at Stony Brook
CAL


there are many more.

Location of Univer is important if you want to graduate and work locally to the school.
