Hello, I have been offered admission by two US universities for M.S. (without fund). One of them is a high-ranked, reputable university (University of Florida), while the other one (Portland State University) is low-ranked. Personally, I like PSU more in that it has outstanding professors in my field of study and offers very good courses. However, it is usually said that if you are not graduated from a recognized institution, you will have difficulties being placed in the job market, or transferring to a top university later for pursuing a Ph.D.. Do you think this is the case? I would appreciate it if you could give me your opinions.
