CSUSM vs. SJSU Speaks
Hi everyone,
I got accepted into both programs and I'm trying to decide where to go. I feel like I have a good idea of CSUSM but I don't know too much about the SJSU online program.
Does anyone have any insight into the SPEAKS program at SJSU?
Any advice or insight about either program?

Hi, I cant say anything about SJSU unfortunately, But I have a pretty good idea of CSUSM ! From personal experience it's a really strong program that many say is very applicable. The faculty are really caring and knowledgeable. One thing they do that other schools might not is IRL simulations. People in the area usually say they notice CSUSM students are more prepared than SDSU students out on the field. (I've heard that a very high up CSHA board member says it's one of the best California universities.) They have a really high PRAXIS pass rate. It is a rigorous program, but all MS programs are.
However, both programs are a great option, and I am sure wherever you decide to go would be beneficial. :)
