Columbia MSUP vs. UCLA MURP

Hi everyone,

I got into both Master of Science in Urban Planning (MSUP) at Columbia University and Master of Urban and Regional Planning (MURP) at UCLA. 

I'm having trouble deciding between these two schools and there are couple factors that have been shifting my mind:

  • UCLA has always been my dream school but Columbia is a big name too
  • Columbia costs way more than UCLA does (but finance won't be the No.1 factor in my decision process)
  • I live in LA so it will be convenient for me just to attend UCLA; However, some of my friends and family members are suggesting this would a great chance to explore a brand new environment). I have to admit that the opportunity to live in NYC for two years is attractive. 

I am going to check out both schools and learn more about their concentrations but any inputs/ thoughts from you guys will be appreciated. 

Help, please! Many thanks!
