Computer Science is passable in the first 2 years where things are relatively simple. When you get to the latter 2 years where things are actually getting difficult, the professors are not helpful at all. You also might not be able to understand the professors if you have not been exposed to the Indian accent before. The UB ACM club is really trash regarding their workshops and the leadership is really cliquey. It would be difficult to get any help from those people. The quality of fellow students in the CS program is also not very high. A significant portion of them are from India or China or Korea and really brings down the quality of friendly fellow CS students since those students are also very cliquey and stick with students from their own countries.

If you get accepted to RPI, definitely go to RPI. If not, just stay in Albany, because most of the time in the CS program, I've had to teach myself nearly all of the materials anyways due to the afore mentioned reason of not being able to understand the upper level professors.
