How do I choose a grad school for my Master's degree in Student Affairs?
What are factors that should be considered? What schools are well-known for their Student Affairs programs or have unique qualities to their program?

The best place to start is to ask student affairs administrators on your campus where they went for their degree and what they would recommend. You should also explore whether you want to focus more on administrative or counseling since each program prioritizes these differently. Also, a program that helps place you in a substantive graduate assistantship can be a good measure for choosing. There are several really good programs. I had a great experience at Florida State. Here is a link from ACPA that also has some good information: http://www.myacpa.org/c12/selecting.htm
