TAMU vs Ohio State MS CS

$

0
I have got admits from TAMU MS(thesis), Ohio State MS(thesis) and NCSU MR(non-thesis) CS program.

I am interested in pursuing thesis track in Data Mining/ Machine Learning/ Computer Vision. Although I don't have any immediate plans for PhD, I may pursue it in the future. After finishing the two years Masters, my goal is to get a job.

Ohio State
* Good TA opportunities. Almost everyone gets it in the second semester.
* Multiple professors working in this area.
* Fees equivalent to NCSU. (In the case of TA, will be offset due to the partial tuition waiver.)
* Jobs - ?? (Not able to get much information)

TAMU
* Cheap, Very low fees.
* TA/RA - unpredictable. Depends on the professor.
* Multiple professors working in the area of interest.
* Jobs - As per the senior, depends on your networking, don't depend on the career fairs.

NCSU
* Non-thesis track. Have to convince a professor to convert to thesis track.
* Huge intake of students recently as compared to TAMU and Ohio State.
* RA/TA - Low chance. As per seniors, don't keep high expectations.
* Jobs - Due to proximity to RTP, good opportunities available.

I am confused between Ohio State and TAMU, and no longer considering NCSU because of the admission in non-thesis track.

Even though Ohio State is the highest ranked among my three admits, most of my peers ask me to make my decision between TAMU and NCSU. Apparently, TAMU and NCSU has better reputation than Ohio State. But I am not sure.

Can senior please help here?

Thank you Smile
