I am just looking to get into something secure where I can utilize my skills and be rewarded...

Most affordable schools?
Hey everyone,
Just wondering what are some of the most "affordable" schools for an MPH. I'm an international student, so funding is extremely limited unfortunately, so I was wondering what are some of the programs that don't cost as much but are also ranked favorably. Are schools in California somewhat cheaper? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Public Health Research Experience
So yes I am aware of a few other threads similar to this one, but I wanted more personal advice and I'll make it quick.
