I've asked this question before when this sort of thing comes up.

If you knew the answer already, then why did you waste everyone's time by asking?

You ask people for publicly stated opinions. If the people are professionals in the biz, or academics in the biz, then they won't want to answer publicly in the way you ask. Why not? It ain't professional. That's Lesson #1, and you might as well learn it now whether or not you want to.

So, you will get the sort of advice you apparently don't want: General advice on how to select a college program, and general advice on how to decide for yourself which school is best for you. Hint: Everything you ask for is available in this forum, but you have to listen long enough to get to know people well enough to read between the lines, and you have to graciously (and quietly) ignore what is not pertinent. That's Lesson #2.
