I am not in this major, I am a social work major.. but this is a little conundrum for me too. For undergrad I went to a state school and I applied to private grad schools. One of my professors had gone to Boston College, and he dropped some wisdom that may help. He said that if I wanted to stay and working in my state, that is fine because the program is known... But if I wanted to go to another state to get a job, a more well known University, would hold most likely hold more weight because it is more universally known.
