I wouldn't restrict myself to only looking at traditional stats programs.
For example, Wayne State University offers an MS in Mathematical Statistics. About half the degree is courses in Real Analysis and Modern Algebra. The other half, 5 courses, breaks down as 3 stats classes and 2 stats theory classes.
On the other hand, their MS degree in Applied Math can be taken in such a way that you end up taking 8-9 classes. All of them are offered in a traditional stats program.
The Industrial Engineering department offers an MS in IE. For that degree you can take 6 industrial stats classes and 2 applied stats classes from the math department. Between those 3 degrees, I'd rather have the MS IE degree. More money, more jobs, and you apply your stats so you actually know what you use it for. Most of the IE Stat classes are an "overview" type of class. So, you cover more material and learn about more things.
As a graduate student, I took Design of Experiments from an IE department. We covered mixed models in 2 weeks. When I took my stats course in mixed models, we covered the same material in depth but took all semester to do it. Because the stats prof insisted we learn the SAS code, and make pretty SAS graphs. In IE, we had example code and modified it as needed. In Stats, we got the same code, eventually, and modified it as needed. Having the IE class first made the second class an easy A. I also pointed out uses and mistakes the stats prof made;-)

Have you tried some of the online master degree programs such as Texas A&M, University of South Carolina, Penn State World Campus, University of Washington, and so on. Many of these programs are taught by the same Professor. Also you can take courses at statistics.com and sliderule offers mentors and a great learning program. Oh UC Irvine has many online Predictive Analytics program as does Northwestern University, and NYU. So many options to choose from, wishing you a he best.
