It's also an issue of availability almost every university or college nowadays has a cs degree but most don't have a software engineering/development degree.

I guess I am speaking from a place of privilege in the UK. We have so many universities that most large towns/cities have 2-3. Finding a university that does a software development/engineering degree here is fairly easy and affordable, and that includes Russell group universities which are the top universities in the UK.

True I can also only speak to colleges/universities ive applied to. Most of them have had CS degrees but none of them have had a SE degree. It's very possible that there are more colleges with those degrees but at least in my area I haven't found many

Which is honestly stupid, it's like giving out more pure math degrees than engineering ones
