The Masters Of IS program offers nothing new from Undergraduate programs and they curve grades. I've heard the same from another undergraduate student from my hometown that's transferred out of another program: in terms of grade curving.

I would look at other private universities that have smaller class sizes, and that offer challenging programs(that give you a reason to want to do the coursework instead of repeating undergraduate work) that rely on your actual ability.

I went to an undergraduate program that didn't curve grades, reinforced teamwork(grade curving just introduces politics and backstabbing other students), and had challenging classes(they used end of year feedback in addition to test scores to determine if the program was good instead of a bell curve.)

It's a large university so the student body was a mix of friendly with a dash of arrogance.
