I've been accepted to both of my top-choice programs (CSU and MGH) and I know I should be thrilled, but now I'm just feeling confused. Can anyone give me any insight here? These programs are so different and I love them both for different reasons.
MGH is an OTD, while CSU is an MS/MOT, depending on which route I select. MGH is private and expensive (~105k after scholarships), while CSU is a state school and I have in-state tuition (~40k).
Ultimately, I love research and hope to remain in research throughout the course of my graduate studies and beyond. Although MGH is a doctorate while CSU is a master's program, CSU offers a PhD in Occupational and Rehabilitative Science that I could potentially complete within 3 years of beginning the MS.
That said, I love the connections to the thriving medical community that Boston could offer.
I also don't really understand the value of OTD vs. MS at this point...
Help... there are just too many factors here!
