I want to make a Facebook group for people planning on going! If anyone wants to make a group with me, message me so we can!

Hi everyone! I'm still pretty new to this forum and would love some insight! It looks like I need to make a decision between Temple and Southern Connecticut State University. SCSU is in state for me but after researching the programs, I feel like Temple is more structured towards my future career goals (more research funding and opportunities and I would like to do research at graduate level, more diverse opportunities for field experience and they offer what seems to be a better bilingual option) but this comes with a much higher price tag. Thoughts?

I've been doing a lot of research about the school and I've been hearing a lot of the same responses about the area as what you just gave so thank you! It's helpful to hear from someone on campus currently. I was wondering what everyone else knows about the program or if they have friends who are in it. I would love to hear from a more personal account than just stats I see online before I make my final decision!

I'm currently trying to decide between programs/how much I'll go into debt. I got into one of my top choice programs but it looks like it'll put me about 60k in debt. I've been fortunate enough to graduate undergrad without any debt due to paying off my loans as quickly as possible/working full time during school. Am I crazy to seriously be thinking about signing on to this much debt? Also. the program I got into is much more highly ranked than the other two I'm waiting to hear from (this one is #25 and the others are #150 and up). I know rankings don't play a huge role but does anyone have any input on the difference in these rankings? I feel so lost!
