Which MS in Computer Science program to attend?

[NVP12345]

[sorry for the repost -- I just learned of my acceptance to the third school, and I didn't realize there was a sweet poll option! Please factor in my personal considerations when voting, and thank you! ]

I've just learned I'm admitted to these schools for MS in Computer Science, and they are my only serious contenders at this point. A few things that are factors for me:

- I am already at Columbia (School of Continuing Education), and the 3 graduate-level courses I am taking now will transfer in directly. UCLA MAY let me transfer in two of these pending a petition to the department. Wisconsin will not take any transfer credit.

- I am out of state for UCLA and Wisconsin so cost is comparable to each other and Columbia

- I've been in New York for almost 4 years and am getting a little sick of it

- I think I'd rather end up on the west coast after I graduate, but would like whatever school I choose to be held in high regard on either coast

- My number one concern is the quality of job I'll be able to find when I graduate

I am interested in Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning and Software/Networks engineering.

Any thoughts from those with some knowledge about this area would be helpful. Thanks!
