I agree with what has been said regarding the importance of the right theological and academic fit. I also know that can be hard to determine in advance, if you don't have a good frame of reference for hashing it out. I didn't have a good grasp on my theological leanings when I was applying, so in some ways, it might have behooved me to wait a couple of years, though I don't ultimately regret having gone when and where I did. I got my M.Div. from Yale Divinity, which is mainline/liberal; overall, it was not a great fit for me theologically, which could sometimes be alienating. However, I still had some excellent classes, and I finally figured out how to seek out good mentorship for myself. (That's another thing; I had naive expectations as to how spiritually formative the div school environment would be -- it is not necessarily something that happens easily or organically, and I had to figure out how to fit the intellectual and religious pieces together in a way that worked for me. That might be less the case in a smaller denominational seminary compared to a large ecumenical one, but I don't know.)
You can feel free to message me if you have any questions about Yale/the M.Div. experience. Also, my husband is getting his PhD at GTU right here in Berkeley, so between the two of us, we might be able to answer some questions you might have about life here (though we don't know a ton about each individual member school).
