Congrats on being admitted to UIowa.
TAMU might be a little tough but you'll easily get through USC because of the 100% admit rate over there.

Since you are interested in Networks, SUNY-SB would be the college of choice. However, please remember that it's not into *hard-core* research in CS. In the end, I'd suggest either SUNY-SB or USC if you intend to enter the industry after your MS.
Good luck!

Cheers!

Re: In at Univ of Iowa...plz help

I don't think he was "putting down" those universities, but rather saying that if you did want higher-ranked universities, you could wait until next year. Of course, I personally would not want to wait a year, but it's your decision.

My problem with these is that it looks like only one, Syracuse has provided any sort of aid. Is this the case?? Have you planned to fund your own graduate education?? Just curious as to your situation so I can better lend some advice.
