Neuroscience courses are highly competitve in US. Try usnews.com and dont apply to the top 10 programs.....They would feature the IVY league schools...But for MS admissions, always try fr 2 ambitious, 4-5 moderate and 3-4 safe schools.... This way, there would be less problems... I suggest you use the above website for reference and visit the top 100 schools in US... Then narrow down your search...With your fees range, the central american universities would be a good bet. Dont apply to california or NY schools....
