Anyone have any thoughts on whether I should go with an unsubsidized gov. loan first or try a private loan out? That is after I borrow the maximum amount I can through a gov. subsidized loan. I am going to Boston U and I am looking to borrow around 50-55000 for fall '07 (yikes). ~Matt B

Hello all, I just got accepted to Boston University's MA Econ program yesterday. How do they compare to the other grad school's as far as masters programs go? It is very easy to find lots of info on PhD programs but masters program is limited. From what I can tell, the master's program rankings kind of go along with PhD rankings. By rankings I mean those on econphd.net. Also, anyone know why BU's program is shorter (2 semesters) than most? Almost all of the terminal masters programs seem to be 3 or 4 semesters. Regardless, I will be headed to Boston in the fall at this point I am just curious. Thanks! Matt Baker Senior, MSU - B.A. Econ expected in May
