Hey,
I was wondering if you guys would help me choose between 2 graduate schools, George Mason University (Fairfax, VA) and Northeastern University (Boston, MA). I want one of them to be my third choice (first and second are NYU and UMD, playing the waiting game right now for both of them, chances don't look too spectacular me thinks). It's for a Masters degree in Computer Science.
I'm mainly looking for one that is more "known" by people, because I have noticed many many times that if a job recruiter has heard of your college, you have a much better chance. I'm saying this out of experience since my undergrad computer science degree from a very good but unknown college has gotten me nowhere.
Since most of you guys are not in VA or MA, you have more of an outsiders view on those 2 colleges. I can't pick between em because GMU has a better CS program than Northeastern, but Northeastern is in BOSTON! I've been there a few times, love that city. So the tie-breaker is the more famous college.
Thanks guys.
