There are great high schools in Queens.  Particularly in the public sector.  It sounds like you are willing to do some research so check out the sites below.  \n\nThe NYC Dept. of Education website below has a map of queens so you can click on an area and it will list the schools in that area.  I have provided the link for charter schools specifically.\n\nHappy researching!!

NYU has a nation fame associated with it.  It is a good college, but it will cost you (unless you have a lot of scholarships).  It is one of the most diverse campuses since NYC is the most diverse city in the world.\n\nYou will have to live in a major metropolis too, so that could be a good or bad thing.  Your class sizes will be HUGE to start with, and should get smaller as you define your major.

Being from New England, I only know schools around here, but I'd suggest Bard College (Annandale-on-Hudson, NY), Bennington College (Bennington, VT), Simon's Rock College of Bard (Great Barrington, MA), or Emerson College (Boston, MA). I have friends at Bard and Emerson who love them. I think they all offer other areas of study, but I'm not sure if there are core requirements that would discourage you.

A lot of this depends on details you've left out of your question: dorm or commute?  particular major?  is cost a factor?\n\nFor NYC, one of your best choices for a non-dorm school is Queens College of the City University of New York.  Great, prestigious faculty in a wide variety of departments (for example,  English, BioChemistry, Elementary and Secondary Education, Political Science, Psychology) and one of the most inexpensive schools around!  \n\nFor a dorm-school on LI, SUNY StonyBrook has a lot to offer.  Good variety of active departments and a connection to a University Hospital for research programs.  Close enough to NYC (Long Island RailRoad right outside campus) for ubran adventure, and right near Port Jefferson and Smithtown/Smithhaven Mall for more "long island" life.\n\nIf you're looking for a college in Manhattan, then you should really go to one that has a specific "calling" for you -- it has the major you want... it has connections to the industry you want to advance in... something that "grabs" you as an undergraduate.  It might not be worth all the expense if you are still undecided.  Graduate school might be where you focus on the Manhattan schools.\n\nHope this helps :)

I think it's hard to rank them because they are such different types of schools.  RIT is ranked 6th among Masters level schools in the North, while SUNY Binghamton is ranked 75th among national institutions.  Overall, though, I think RIT has a bigger name among people who know it's history.\n\nMy vote is Rochester, especially if you are very technology focused.

New York City has schools for interior design. The best is Parson's school of design.

NYU...New York University.

I think she's asking which is the best university in New Jersey? \n\nWell, if that's the question, the most prestigious university in NJ is Princeton. But there are other excellent schools in that state, including Rutgers - New Brunswick, Stevens Institute of Technology, Drew University, and then of course there are all the fine schools in NY.

In the U.S. or in Canada?  Or does it matter to you?\n\nState University of New York (SUNY) at Buffalo is a very good school, and not too far from you.  University of Toronto and York University are good schools in the Toronto Area.\n\nI went to Cornell University (Ithaca, NY) with a guy from Guelph.\n\n  -Ben

Hello there,\n\nI believe you can find what you are looking for at the links below:\n\nhttp://www.nymentor.edu/CampusTour/undergraduate/357/Bronx_Community_College/Bronx_Community_College1.html\n\nhttp://www.bcc.cuny.edu/

The previous answerers are just plain wrong.\n\nUS News and World Report (as well as any college professor) will tell you that Columbia is ranked academically much more highly than NYU.\n\nFor example, Columbia is ranked #9 and NYU is ranked #37 in US News' ranking of best universities in the US (see the link below).\n\nIf you are interested in liberal arts colleges, Barnard is by far the best in NYC.\nUS News and World Report (and again, any college professor) knows this.\nBarnard is ranked #27 among all liberal arts colleges nationwide.

You should take the SATs before you apply to college. This would show the college admissions board that your home school education was excellent. As far as criminal justice, the best college is John Jay College in Manhattan.

i didn't go there, nor do i have any close friends who have, but from what i hear it's the best public school in the area by far, better than many of the private schools.  i think there's a good deal of pressure on the students to do well, but then they make it easier to do well.  it's tough to get into, but well worth it.
