Seeking a top tier (or hidden gem with outstanding faculty and focus on undergrads) computer science program with a practical bent (a la CMU) and a broad and rich offering of foreign languages. I am a California resident. SAT 2270 first (and only) pass (800M,750R,720W), SAT II 800 Math ii, 790 Spanish, 790 Bio, 750 Phys. AP Calc AB 5, Comp Sci 5, Spanish 5, Psych 5, Bio 4, Physics 4, APUSH 4. Will take 5 AP senior year for a total of 12 AP. GPA 3.85. Community college GPA 4.0. 2 varsity sports. Multiple ECs. Indifferent on location, size, city/rural. Minimal party scene is a plus. Cost is a consideration. Will have to take on debt to go beyond CA in-state UC. So a private school which gives some grants to get things closer to 50k rather than 60 or (gasp) 65k all-in is preferable. Your recommendations are appreciated.
