If you want a ranked computer science program, then you can see if you can get into Johns Hopkins or University of Maryland - Baltimore County.

My issue is my company will only pay for the program if I can attend it will being able to work at the Office (attending it would mean part-time). I go to the office when I do not have class.

Hopkins and Maryland BC are likely too far to commute. The office is located in D.C. I suppose I could try to live at their midpoint, but that may be tough.

Overall, would you say University of Maryland College Park is not a good school for Computer Science?

George Mason In Virginia

Georgetown

George Washington University


John Hopkins

all of these schools will have good programs. There are a huge number of schools in the DC area. but yes UMD has a big rep here especially their engineering department. People know it is a good school.

For UMD, College Park location?
