My question is: what have been your experiences with state schools at the Master's level and are there any hidden gems out there that you would like to promote? I know there are some great ones out there, but I want to hear about specific experiences. The reason I ask is that I am a military musician and plan on taking advantage of the Post 911 GI Bill in the next couple of years (I still have some time on my contract and am also currently working on a Master's in Arts Administration). My top two MM choices are both private universities (Rice and Boston University, in my home and adopted home towns, respectively) that are participating in the Yellow Ribbon program in which schools make up some of the difference from the GI Bill, but funds can still be limited. I'd like to have some high-quality state schools in my back pocket. Being from Texas originally, I am pretty familiar with UT Austin and the Univ. of Houston--I'd like to hear about other possibilities, particularly in New England, but also in places I haven't even considered yet.
