I agree with your point to pick a school that you "can afford".
For a CS degree, I am of the opinion that "any" school offering one, "and" that also has a relatively high percentage of graduates who have found fulltime jobs in the CS field post graduation would be ok. If there are statistics about schools' CS grads salaries, one might factor that into a choice as well.
Otherwise, other factors important to the student, such as campus activities, culture, geographic location can play a more important part in chosing a school.
Just "get that CD degree".
My DS, who graduated with CS degree about five years ago from a state university, has a nice high paying job with state government. Nice benefits. He just bought himself, after stuffing all his available retirement options with maximum allowed, a brand new car with some of his leftover lucre. He was not the star student, took nearly 6 years to finish the BS CS, but he did it and got the degree.
A CS degree from nearly any accredited college will be the golden ticket, doesn't matter really which college.
IMHO.
I agree. As I said above, getting a CS will get you a good job. My advise was to try to help the OP make the optimal choice (IMO).
