I got my degree before there were degrees in TEFL/TESL, but I know San Francisco State University has a good program.

I'll be finishing my MATESOL in December at UCF (University of Central Florida). I've really enjoyed this program, and I can point to tangible differences in my competence and confidence as a teacher.
Moreover, I feel prepared to go on for my PhD. The faculty have been really supportive and approachable, and have very diverse backgrounds, specialities, and research foci.
My only complaint is that the library resources are a little on the thin side, but interlibrary loan and online databases are your friend.
