Thread: Need help regarding University selection

Hey Friends,
This is Ishan Dindorkar. I am applying for MS in CS for term Fall 2013. I got an email from a university named as Brandeis University stating that the application fee for applying to graduate program in CS has been waived off for me depending on my TOEFL score. I would like to know about the university and its graduate program in CS. If anybody has any kind of information regarding this university, please share. Its deadline is on Jan 15th. Also I came to know about another university, WakeForest located in North Carolina. If possible, please share some information regarding this university as well.
Besides, following is my profile for reference,

1. SSC(10th, CBSE) - 82.4%
2. HSC(12th, CBSE) - 75%
3. BE(Computer Science & Engineering) - 78.67%
4. GRE - 1290(Quant - 760, Verbal - 530, AWA - 3.0)
5. TOEFL - 110
6. Work Exp --
i) TCS - As Systems Engineer for 2 years, worked with South African telecom provide client on Java technology (Struts, JSP, PL/SQL)
ii) Oracle Financial Services - Currently working as Assistant Technical Analyst on Flexcube product
7. Certifications - OCJP 6, OCWCD 5

Request you all to please suggest some safe universities where I can get admit with funding options depending on my profile.

Thanks & Regards,
Ishan D
