Question
I am in a dilemma, I have two Canadian university acceptance letters. One from Carleton University and one from Brock University in the computer science field. The problems seems to be that Carleton has offered me a place in the computer science majors program without co-op and computer science majors is a general degree for which I cannot further postgraduate studies in Carleton. Where as Brock has given me admissions in a specialized computer science honors program, with co-op. Please advise me as to which university to choose, as i have heard Carleton to be a very respected university but the program at Brock is exactly what I need from an undergraduates program.

Answer
I'm sorry, but I don't know anything about either of those Canadian universities.  The co-op program and specialized program sounds much better, but I don't know about the reputation of the schools.  I suggest you ask a Canadian company that employs many computer majors, or ask a graduate school admissions officer.  Good luck.
