I am confused between jss mysore and pes(ec campus) for cse. Please someone tell me which one should I go for😭😭

Please tell me

Hi, I'm a junior right now and I'm struggling to find colleges to apply to, and my top choice. These are my stats:

3.8 unweighted, 4.2 weighted

No SATs yet, taking them in May

PSATs: 1120 w/o studying, but I'm taking them again this October and have been studying for them

AP Seminar: 4

AP Bio: 3

I'm taking APUSH, AP Research, AP Lang, and honors calc (might self study and take AB test, school doesn't have it).

I also am on the varsity wrestling team (since freshman year) and I play softball.

I don't really volunteer, which I know is a problem. I'm hoping to work in some hours this year and the next.

I'm attending a month long architecture summer program next year at Roger Williams University (Saving up for it rn)

Idrk if this counts as a passion project, but I'm doing my AP Research project on how urban environments and the repetitive nature of buildings in cities impacts mental health.

I'm white and female, 2nd gen student

On paper, my parents make a good amount, but we live basically paycheck to paycheck.

I've lowkey been panicking because I feel like I've been underestimating myself for the past 2 years and focusing on less selective colleges due to the fear of not receiving enough financial aid. But now, I feel like I've done so much to be proud of and I really just want to find colleges that will give me the best opportunity after I graduate.

I want to go to somewhere in the northeast or southeast states that aren't TOO far from NJ.

I've been looking into Virginia Tech, Roger Williams University, and Marywood but I wanna make a list of at least 10 colleges, I've just been struggling to find them.

Thanks so much for your help!!!

Gims vs gsvm vs snmc vs mln vs llrm vs upums

I am from Nepal and I am planning to apply for a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, especially outside Nepal. I am looking for university recommendations.

I am interested in:

• Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
• Competitive Programming
• Robotics
• Software Engineering

I enjoy learning new things, solving problems, and building projects on my own. I don’t want to focus on just one area. I would like to explore different fields during my degree.

I would like to ask:

• Which universities would be a good fit for someone with these interests?
• Which universities value coding skills and personal projects?
• Which universities give students freedom to explore different fields?
• Which universities are strong in AI/ML, robotics, and software engineering?
• How important are grades compared with coding skills, projects, competitions, and extracurricular activities?
• As a student from Nepal, which universities offer good scholarships or financial aid for international students?

I would especially appreciate recommendations from current students, graduates, or people with experience applying to universities, particularly international students from Nepal.

Thanks!

LEETCODE PROFILE

I graduated from NECC with an associate’s in engineering science in May and am looking for a university to attend and have narrowed it down to these two colleges. There are pros and cons to both colleges in my eyes but I want to know what you guys think. UML is great, I love the fact that it is close to the city and they have numerous co-op and internship opportunities, but I live out of state and even with the generous scholarships I am still paying almost $10k per semester without living on campus. It is also relatively close to where I live so it is more convenient, but the cost is still fairly high. UNH for me would cost significantly less because I am a NH resident on top of the scholarships and pell grants I have received. I know it also has robust internship programs, although I do not think they would be as good as UML’s simply due to the fact that UML is in the heart of industrial MA whereas UNH is a college town. I know both schools are ABET certified and have excellent engineering courses so that is not a concern for me in the slightest. UNH is also much further away than UML is but that really isn’t a concern for me to be honest.

What do you guys think? Am I overthinking this?

My top priority is college freedom, low academic pressure, reasonable attendance policies, and a good student life/vibe inside Bangalore. I want enough free time to work on my startup and side hustle and stuff and make connections in bangalore i dont care that much about packages, i just want a little time and freedom, dont suggest tier 1 colleges, dont care about rank btw, i was thinking about atria institute of technology, can yall suggest me some if yall know, i would really appreaciate it

I’m looking for admission in veterinary college but I’m confused where to go.

Can someone please explain the pros and cons?

Here is the complete, separate breakdown of the Discipline Specific Core (DSC) and Discipline Specific Elective (DSE) courses for both colleges based on their official FYUGP curriculum documents.

Pls help seniors

first post so im sorry if this isnt exactly in the right subreddit! im currently applying to colleges and im planning to major in microbiology or at the very least biology (or bio-adjacent). while working on application stuff, i found out ball state also offers a bio major with emphasis on micro i believe? im already leaning towards iub since they offer a microbio major but i wanted to get second opinions before i actually fully commit. in case this might help, iub is an hour away from where i live while purdue and ball state are like 2 hours.

what do you guys think?

i’m trying to decide between going to cornell vs UT austin( I already got into both) I am a Government major looking to go into law. I want to go to a top law school so i know i need to have a pretty high gpa and I also really value my social life so I like UT Austin in that aspect. I really liked being surrounded by intellectuals at cornell+ivy league opportunities butttt ithaca isn’t the best especially weather wise. (I currently live in Texas) HELP.

were there muliple colleges you considered or it was always spjain?

I have two options:

1. Colleges in MP

MITS Gwalior

RGPV Bhopal

SATI Vidisha

Colleges in Satna, Jabalpur, etc.

Except SGSITS and DAVV Indore, I can get most of the decent options.

2. Through COMEDK

JSSSTU Mysore – CSE

MP Colleges

Government colleges: ₹7–8 lakh total for 4 years

Good private colleges: ₹13–14 lakh total, with around 4–6 LPA average packages.

Pros:

Much closer to home; I can visit my family easily.

Lower fees, so I can invest the saved money in courses and skills.

No major food or language issues.

Better ROI financially.

Cons:

Fewer opportunities like hackathons, internships, and industry exposure.

In many government colleges, I may have to depend heavily on self-study.

Peer group may not be as strong.

CSE average packages are around 4–5 LPA.

JSSSTU Mysore

Total 4-year expenditure: around ₹18 to 20 lakh, including college, hostel, travel, and other expenses.

Pros:

More opportunities and better exposure; Bangalore is also accessible.

Better peer group.

Better academic environment.

CSE average package is around 11–12 LPA, with a median around 9 LPA.

Mysore is calm and peaceful.

Cons:

Very far from home; travelling can take around 30+ hours.

Going home during holidays will be difficult.

Family may also find it difficult to visit frequently.

Some food and language adjustment may be there, though I don't think it will be a major issue.

Fees are much higher, although the ROI seems reasonable.

So, I'm really confused. I'm from MP—do you think taking JSSSTU through COMEDK is worth the extra ₹11–12 lakh, or should I choose an average MP college and focus on developing my skills?

i would like to know more before confirming my college please let me know, this program seems exciting

I AM CONFUSED ABOUT THIS ALOT LIKE SHOULD SEE CITY COLLEGE FOR EXPOSURE OR LOOK FOR NON CITY CLG WHERE ACADEMICS IS LITTLE GOOD AND PLACEMENT IS LITTLE GOOD.

Hii

I have recieved two offer letters yet one from tu ilmenau in research and computer science engineering and one from BTU in Cyber security .

I am unable to decide which one would be the right one for me. I have done bachelors in technology in computer science with specialization in cyber security but i am unable to decide the right university for me if i choose btu my options will be limited to cyber only but if i choose ilmenau i wont be able to master in one domain

can you guys please suggest me on what shall i do?

i am wait listed in business intelligence and analytics and i was wondering how high are my chances. cause i have to go abroad and this is my only chance

I just wanted to ask if Btech CSE: Advanced AI-IBM of Medi-Caps University better or BCA+MCA of DAVV better for placement and future.
