I have admits from UC, Riverside and Stevens for MS in CS. Which one would you recommend?

Question

I have non-cs background. I know UCR is better ranked than Stevens but it also has the quarter system which is scary. Is it too fast for a non-cs #masters #ms #decisions #universitydecisions #universityselection #riverside #Stevens #studyabroad #universityofcalifornia #uc

Hi,

UCR MS CS should be your pick. UCR follows the quarter system which I believe is 3 quarters equal 1 year. Each quarter you will have to study and pass the subjects that you select for that quarter. Basically, very intensive coursework but again good thing prepares you for the best.

Location:
Both are good location wise.

Rankings:
UCR has a higher ranking than Stevens. I believe School's reputation, is less important based on my research and discussions with seniors and graduates in these and other schools, however Stevens is not on the same standing as Riverside and the rank difference is massive.

If you need more information about UCR, please visit the resources listed below
