MSRE, msRED, other programs - things to look for?

Hi, I'm a senior at an elite undergrad looking into my career options headed into CRE. Planning on working right out of school, and probably going to a MSRE or msRED program after a few years. Assuming I can get into the top schools (I go to a top undergrad, near-perfect test scores and GPA, etc), which ones should I dive into deeper?

Asking because I want to see if there is a particular type of Analyst role I should be searching for to better prepare for specific programs.
