I am looking at SCAD, Parsons (No GRE) and a few INT programs.. These programs might not be as strong as the more sought after programs in the US but they are good enough. Additionally, all this hype over schools is bs. I am personally over all the bullsh*t ass kissing and hoop jumping. Experience trumps education.
I graduated with a degree in urban studies and planning from San Francisco State and have been working in the field for about 3 years. Work experience is as follows.
San Francisco Neighborhood Parks Council Urban Design Intern
Postgraduate fellowship with the Institut of Teknologi Surabaya, Indonesia: Master Planning and Urban Design
This is very interesting to me, since I get planning students asking all the time about urban design, and "do I need to go to architecture school?" to get into it. Clearly, the answer on one level is 'no.' But I'd like to see the curricula for these programs to see how they train for design.
As additional obligations land on the public authority, the requirement for better administration of public issues keeps on expanding. Any country's organization is an impression of the public administration diploma possibilities and value of its residents. The actual foundation of progress and development of the nation lies in a completely evolved policy management.

The two year MUD program at Melbourne looks pretty interesting. http://www.msd.unimelb.edu.au/urban-design/master-of-urban-design.html

Is a MLA or M.arch really necessary?
