Jobs after graduation

[patlajan]

I'm 22... How I managed to pay for what? Tuition?
I work *shrug*

Please elaborate. Everything you mentioned must have a price tag around $100k

[Siggie]

what are you talking about ? Graduate programs aren't all that expensive. You can go to a Cal State and get an MA. Tuition's around 3,000-3,500 a year. That's not 100k and when you get into a PhD program they waive tuition and they employ you. It doesn't cost anything.

After I graduate with my BS in computer science and engineering, I plan to continue for Masters and then go after Ph.D. (probably all at UCLA) ... I'll then eventually want to get into research and become a research prof at a top notch school... somewhere like UW Madison.

That's an excellent plan, I hope you get there someday. I have one question though, why Madison, it's such a tiny and deserted place.

[Sip]

This should explain why Pretty much as close as you can get to heaven on earth ... 6 or 7 months out of the year that is!




Or can you imagine what it would be like sitting on the terrace of a Frank Lloyd Wright master piece like this on a warm spring night snuggled up with someone special and just watch the calm lake as the darkness is occasionally disturbed by the incoherent screams of a few drunkards cruising around on their boats?

... another look here and here.

Those are incredible, especially the lake. But why don't you try going to school in NYC, they have a wonderful computer science program at NYU.

I am a bit scared of New York ... I've heard people there are rude, abnoxious, and rude and I also heard gay lovers climb on trees in Central Park to have sex.

NYU is a fantasy. They have a ridiculous number of applicants all willing to pay way too much money.
I don't think New Yorkers are any more rude than the residents of any other large city, but if you want to live in some kind of shelter, be prepared to pay a laughable amount of rent.

To top it off patlajan, I WORK FOR FREEEEEEE. Because no law offcie wants to hire you if you don't have any expierence and you can't get any expierence without working. Stupid c*ck suxers.

[loseyourname]

I say go to Stanford if you're into computer science.

Another thing, as someone who has lived in the suburbs of both cities, New Yorkers are far more rude than Angelenos.
