At this point, I'm about ready to just make an enrollment decision based on which school has someone who can manage to competently do his/her job.

Whatever you do, don't make a selection off of job competency What each of these schools lacks in customer service talent (some to more degrees than others) they all makeup for in degree completion value. Admission seems to be tough for a lot of students on the board but once in, most of the schools balance out in their CS performance and are separated (some in wide margins) by the ability to assist a student getting a good degree fast & at a solid price. During these early growing pains, I would encourage you to work through the weeds to select the best school for what your end game goal is.

Hang in there - this part will be over soon enough.

I'm going to second this advice.  Although it is a painful process in the beginning, do not let it get to you!  I've heard far fewer complaints about people actually working through the degree process than the admissions process.  For whatever reason, they are terrible at this (or other parts) but seem to get the other stuff right.
