M.A Columbia EALC or Stanford EAS?

[xlw204]

I've recently been accepted to Columbia's East Asian Languages and Cultures M.A program and Stanford's East Asian Studies program. I just cannot decide! My research interest is comparative literature between China and Korea, both schools have professors that I would love to work with but one of my concerns are that some are on leave. I'm still deciding on whether I will proceed to Phd therefore this master program would mean a lot to me. Would love to hear anyone's experience or suggestions!
