Prospective graduate schools

In the coming months I am going to commit a lot of time and energy into preparing myself for graduate studies in Urban Planning. Right now I am thinking I should apply this year, and see where I get accepted and how much financial support I will get. I'm doing this since I think it will become much harder to do once I am not in school. For one thing, being at a university full time gives me access to incredible people who have gone down a path similar to this. They can help by giving me advice. I also need the recommendation of professionals in the field I want to go into, and when will I have contact with such people if I were to leave ASU to go into a career right away? I don't think I would. Anyhow, I am super excited and I can't wait to continue my clearer vision for the future of my education. These are four programs I am considering applying to:

1. University of Washington's Master of Urban Planning (Seattle, WA)
2. Portland State University's Urban & Regional Planning Master's Degree (Portland, OR)
3. University of British Columbia's Master of Arts in Community & Regional Planning (Vancouver, BC)
4. Simon Fraser University's Master of Urban Studies (Vancouver, BC) (non-accredited)
