Job prospects, Location, Curriculum, Had multiple professors who were doing things I was interested in.
Course Curriculum
The CS curriculum is heavily based on fundamentals, meaning most of our curriculum is based on learning to use technologies from the 60s and 70s. Contrary to popular belief this is actually a good thing and everyone I know has been able to easily pick up the latest technologies in a matter of days (the new tech is based on the old tech). This curriculum heavily influenced my college decision.
Faculty
Student:Faculty ratio = 18:1.
Placement
My program has exceptional placement opportunities. I don't know of many students who graduated without a job. Most of my batch was/is already interning at FAANG companies in their second year.
