Because I'm from a Commonwealth country and my country applying English Law rather than American Law, I recommend you to consider UK as your first choice. The recent top law school is University of Kentucky, College of Law but the legendary college for its continous excellent will be King's College, University or London. But, if you're intended to pursue your Master in US, Harvard University is the best.

If you are open to moving out of state then I suggest Eastern Michigan University, it has one of the best teaching programs in the country.

Try Stanford or Saint Mary's college. Also check out the UC system website, it will lead you to all the UC's that have an economic page.

I don't know what part of Missouri you live in, but if you're in the western part, William Jewell College might be a good one to look at, and if you're in the eastern half, try Lindenwood University.\n\nMissouri State University (you probably know it by it's former name...SMS) also has a decent Psychology program.\n\nThe University of Missouri at Columbia, along with it's University Health System, has a GREAT psychology program, but I'm pretty sure you're already aware of that.\n\nGood luck!

There isn't a bad university in the lot.\n\nWhere do you want to study law?  If in the US, go to a US school.  If in the UK, then study in a UK school.\n\nIf you want to go to a US school you might want to think about location.  Cornel is in the middle of nowhere -- which may or may not appeal to you.  Stanford and Columbia are in locations where a lot of people want to live -- but both laces are expensive.  You might want to add other US schools that are in the top ten (e.g., Duke, Penn, Yale, UC Berkeley).

hi! me again, different universities and tech schools require different classes in their particular curriculum. most will require understanding the processes of the police, the courts and corrections. in addition, you will probably take forensic courses, evidence courses, investigation courses and basic law courses. then if you continue for a masters, you will be taking more advanced research classes ans so on...any help, let me know, i put my email address on the other one, but here it is again. kuhner_us@yahoo.com

Ball State University in Muncie Indiana does an excellent job.\nThey also offer many areas of expertise.

I had that same question, so I started to do some research and stumbled upon the page I listed as source. A Criminal Justice professor made it. There is a list of all the good Graduate CJ programs in the country listed by state. He handpicked all those schools. He also writes about the ins and outs of graduate education in criminal justice. Check it out, I found it to be really helpful. \n\nPS: It seems like the page is down right now (it happens form time to time) but check it out sometime later today or tomorrow and it shoud be up.

I don't know if your school offers this, but I would recommend Law & Economics. It is a nice course, mostly applied microeconomics, so a lot of fun. Take a look at this syllabus:\nhttp://econweb.rutgers.edu/mannige/

Right now, probably University of Chicago.\n\nYou can research standings in US News and World Report and in Petersen Guides.  Also check out Financial Times rankings of economics grad programs.\n\nFinally, find a reputable economics journal and contact the editors - they should be happy to help you... heck, they should be happy that you actually saw their journal.

Royal Holloway University of London had a good reputation for psychology- excellent research etc. I did a French degree there, and that's what all the psyc. undergrads said-when they weren't accusing me of wanting to sleep with my mother and kill my father.

Good teaching institution especially for applied science: not terribly hot in research terms, though. Aberdeen is a nice city as well, though not cheap. It probably depends what subject you are talking about though.

I haven't heard anything about that particular school, it would be best to get the opinions of attorneys and judges in the area.\n\nHowever, I would not recommend that you go to a non-ABA approved school.  You will not be able to practice outside of your home state, you will make less money, and it will be much harder to get a job.  If you are going to spend 3 years in law school, you want to be able to do something with your degree once you get out.  Think carefully about what you want to do as a lawyer - make sure that a degree from that school is going to get you where you want.\n\n*edit*\nI looked up the school - it is an online school?  Let me tell you, as a law student from a reputable school in LA (Loyola Law - Johnny Cochran was an alumn), if you get your degree from there, it won't be seen with any respect.  When you go to law school, you learn to think like a lawyer, and your in class experience is what teaches you how to approach the law.  If you take courses online, it will be much harder for you to pass the bar (if you are even allowed to sit for it) and it will be basically a waste of time.  If you want to go into a legal career, and traditional law school isn't an option for you, think about becoming a paralegal - you can probably find a program near you at a university.  With an online legal degree, you aren't going to be able to get a job that pays much more than if you were a paralegal.\n\nHowever, if law school is your dream, you should work hard and apply - there is a wide range of ABA approved schools across the country that take many levels of students.  Take a look at my other answers in my profile - I have answered many questions about the law school application process.  Try to go the traditional way... you will probably be wasting time and money with an online degree.

University of TN - Knoxville has one of the best in the nation. That's where the famous "boneyard" is that has been featured in documentaries and used as a setting in a top mystery book.  I don't know the cost.
