Please help me with it~ Thank you!

I am an international student and I will be studying Mental Health Counseling (master) in the US in 2014 fall. Now I've got ADs from TC at Columbia University(with $8000), Boston College(with $3000), UPenn(with $5000), University of Florida and Washington University in St. Louis(with $20000, MSW). I also got an interview invitation from Lehigh University. Now I am considering whether I should attend CU (because of its reputation). So, I wanna get some help from someone who is studying or had studied in CU (better be in the counseling program) or someone knows something about it. Is the Psychological Counseling Program in CU worthy of its tuition and fees? From the angles of internship site, working opportunity and living environment, should I spend that much money to pursue a degree in CU? Now I plan to apply for a Phd program after my graduation, is CU's Phd Program in Counseling good? Another thing, what about the living expenses in NYC? If I want to save money as much as possible, where should I choose to live and what about the cost of meals? Is there any tips? And.......If CU is not an optimal choice, which university or college would be the best choice generally? Many of the universities that accepted me cost a lot of money and I know if I can be accepted by Lehigh, Lehigh will be the cheapest one. I am very anxious about those things and I really need some help from some experienced persons. Thank you all who read my post and who can solve my puzzles! Thank you!
