Hi all,
I am considering between these 3 schools, hope you can help me with.
1/ Rutgers: MS in Statistics and Biostatistics. A great school and program with good placements and the thesis option. MS students can transfer into PhD
2/ Case Western Reserve: MS in Biostatistics. Very well ranked university, particularly in Ohio. Can't find any historical placements. MS students can transfer into PhD
3/ South Carolina: MS in Statistics (cannot compare to the above 2 in every aspect, the reason I am considering this school because I got the teaching assistantship)
My most concern is finding the job in US after graduation, regardless of the field. The ability to transfer to PhD is also important, in case the plan of finding the job does not work out and I can save 2 years of course work. I am extremely lucky that the tuition is not a problem.
My favorite school right now is Rutgers but I really appreciate any advice, especially from the above programs' alumni. Is there anyone who transferred directly from MS in Stat/Biostat at Rutgers/CWRU to their PhD?
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi Square9627,
Graduates in statistics is quite highly sought after by different sectors. While historical placement data might be difficult to obtain, you can try and find out more via facebook groups
For example: Here Rutgers Facebook Group you might find an alumi or current student that can help you.
Hope this helps
Regards
PS: If you like Rutgers you should consider it (personal opinion)
