PhD in Health Services Research/ Health Policy- Indecisive Coma

[mizmph]

With April 15th approaching quickly, I am hoping someone can share any experiences from the programs I have been accepted into. All of the programs align with my research interests quite well. Iowa is definitely the most reputable program, but I have lived in the mid-west my whole life and am looking for a change of environment. Any guidance is much appreciated! 

• University of Iowa- PhD in Health Services and Policy: Offered GRA position. 
• Oregon State University- PhD in Health Policy: Offered TA position. 
• University of Colorado- PhD in Health Services Research: I have not received an official letter at this time, but have spoken to both the directors and they are working on a TA funding package. The program is fairly new and has not produced many graduates, but the professors I spoke to assured my that the program will prepare students for academia.
