Hello:
There a lots of MA programs out there that provide funding!!! Most of the times this is a better option, because you get into a better PhD program.
I would suggest LSU first and foremost. They provide 10.5k TA-ships. Dr. Schufreider: Medieval Philosophy, Heidegger, Aesthetics; Dr. Raffoul: Heidegger, Levinas, Derrida, Nancy; Dr. Protevi: Foucault, Deleuze, Badiou, continental cognitive science. Plus, tons of other great professors. Protevi and Cogburn both have great blogs.
Also there is George Mason which I suggest. But there are tons more, they are just badly advertised, so you have to find them yourself. Find big schools that do not have PhD programs... many of them have MAs.
Cheers
