MS in Nutrition: USC vs Tufts

[orangeisland]

I am an international student and my goal is becoming an Registered Dietitian in the US.

Without considering program expenses (both are too expensive...), which school is better for getting a dietitian job after graduation?

Also, which state has more job opportunities in nutrition generally (California vs Massachusetts)? Could you give me some advice?

 

- USC (University of Southern California): Nutrition, Healthspan and Longevity (Coordinated Program, School of Gerontology) / 21 months program including DI

- Tufts: Nutrition Interventions, Communication, and Behavior Change (This is not a DPD/CP. I will pursue DPD at Simmons while working towards my masters at Tufts. It will take more than 2 years to complete my 1,200 hours of DI additionally)
