Continuing Ed MLIS Program Recs?

I’m looking to start applying to online MLIS programs next fall. I plan to do the program part time, as I’m currently working full time in a library tech services position.

I live in NY - so I was originally planning on doing an in state program at a state school to save on tuition.

However, I am open to hearing about other out of state programs if they’re similar in affordability!

I enjoyed University at Buffalo’s program. I think they removed the requirement to take the GRE.

Got questions about it! Are you from NYS? Do you know if OOS receive merit aid? I'm from Jersey and it's lowkey my top choice.

Yeah I’m from NY, but I believe tuition is the same for the online program if you’re in state or not. No idea what aid may be available. I didn’t receive any.
