Sgt Aaron Shaw:
When I was researching schools: so that I could achieve my M.A.- I was interested in majoring in Human Behavior.
To this day, I would love to be a psychiatrist.
I hope and pray that your day is going very well, Sergeant.
-Most Sincerely, Margaret C. Higgins U.S. Army (Ret.), coach/photographer

I would look at salary data for recently graduated classes. Schools have this data and often make it available.

Format of school. Some full-time programs have an international focus and will have a greater length to accommodate overseas residency. Other full-time programs have an accelerated focus and will be more academically rigorous in order to graduate faster for job placement.
