There are many schools in the US that offer Masters degrees with the
option of Astronomy/Astrophysics research topics. I recommend that
you use http://www.gradschoolshopper.com to narrow the search.

Just to add: I'd apply to a bunch (~10) and see if one will offer you a TA/RA position. I don't think that the particular program's reputation matters enormously, though you do want to make sure you get a real chance at serious research.
