How do I properly investigate the schools I am looking at

So how do I properly investigate limestone and troy to make sure they are good school? Should I consider applying to both and see how my credits fall?

 

Do you mean good as in accredited? Good as in quality of instruction? Good as in how its perceived in the marketplace?

 

educational quality.
I know both are accredited and I am on the west coast so nobody will likely know how they are. But quality of education is my concern.

 

Try this:

Go to LinkedIn.com and do a few searches for Limestone & Troy State and look for people who went through their CS programs. You should be able to find people listed on there who have attended the schools and you can then contact them through LinkedIn and ask their opinions of the programs.
