Masters in Real Estate?

I just graduated undergrad in May and I've been accepted to a MSRE program in Southern California, I'm not sure whether I should do it or not because of the high cost (already 20K in loans from undergrad), and I haven't been able to get into CRE yet in any capacity. Working at the moment but its not enough to cover tuition. Is the risk of being in the MSRE worth the reward? There is a part time option 2 years long so to split the cost evenly, though with my current pay I still wouldn't be able to cover it. More loans? What're my options here? Advice is highly appreciated!
