I got my MSc in Computer Science from a top University in Europe. 50% of students at the University dropped out within 6 months because of how hard it was. The University didn’t care because it wasn’t paid per student. It set a high bar and if you couldn’t handle it too bad for you. A few friends from my University studied computer science at MIT for a year. They reported back that MIT was way easier than our University. So I concluded that at least some prestigious well known Universities are simply better at marketing themselves than others :) And hey my University degree was free. Which was nice. It probably also explains the high bar: No pressure to make sure everybody graduates. If you can’t handle the heat then you are out.
