I'm sure everybody is agonizing to make the "right choice" and thought maybe those of you who's in the same boat as me could discuss over few issues I have right now..
My current top choices are Emory and NYU. NY wins hands down over ATL for me, personally, but the living cost is a huge factor.. Also, while I think Emory is perfect in every single way who can offer probably just about everything within their school of public health, NYU's class offering through their other schools (med school and wagner - their top-ranked public service school) definitely attracts me. I thought I had my heart set on epidemiology but I've been leaning a lot towards more of healthcare management and health economics these days, so I want to have the option of exploring.
What worries me is that NYU's MPH program is just a program. I come from a large (I mean, LARGE) public undergrad, so I would definitely appreciate the small class size, but, forgive me if I'm just being naive, I would think that an established School of Public Health like Rollins would be able to provide so much more assistance and resource.
Money-wise, I did get a little bit of aid from NYU, which would probably cover the living cost difference, so I think the cost will even out.
Is there anyone here who is going to choose, or has chosen and currently attending, a program over a school? I would love some feedback!
Thank you guys!
