There are so many great schools with outstanding Departments of Classics - it's impossible to list them all. Here are the top 15, in my opinion.  \n\nAnd a personal note -- if I were a young woman desiring to major in classics, I'd pick Bryn Mawr.   No contest.  Why?  Opportunities to go on archaeological digs, opportunities to publish in and/or work on Bryn Mawr's classical studies journal, the amazingly dedicated faculty, the absolutely gorgeous campus and dorm rooms, the huge college endowment which allows for superb student financial aid packages, the stimulating academic climate, the proximity to Philadelphia and New York without being in the middle of an urban center, the student diversity..... need I go on? \n\nHarvard \nBrown\nUC Berkeley\nU Michigan\nUniversity of Chicago\nYale\nPrinceton\nU Penn\nUT Austin\nUCLA\nCornell\nColumbia\nUNC Chapel Hill\nBryn Mawr\nDuke\nStanford

According to some leading college reviewers based in the UK, Oxford and Cambridge are the best universities for students who want to major in Theology. However, in my opinion, the best university for a student doesn't depend on ranking by some private institutions, but rather on what the school offers that satisfy the needs of the student. The only way to do this is through actually researching different colleges and contact them to know more beyond what their websites tell you.

Depends on what you want to study.\n\nFor mandarin, Tsinghua University, Peking (aka Beijing) University, BLCU (Beijing Language and Culture University) are some great options. They tend to be on the more expensive range but still cheaper than universities in western countries.\n\nSome of the 'Ivy League' universities in China include: Tsinghua, Peking, Fudan, Zhejiang, Nanjing University. But it really depends on what you are interested in studying.

It is a mistake to look for specific majors in Civil War Studies.  What you really want is 19th century American history, and you can major in history in almost any college in the nation.  The history department is the place to do it, but also take courses in fields like African-American studies, Women's studies, etc.  Look for opportunities in American archaeology (often in Urban Studies departments or in Anthropology departments) as well.\n\nAnd here's some important information.  Since you want to go go on to graduate school, your major should definitely be in history, and you should simply choose the college with the best academic reputation among those that offer you admission.  If you can get into an Ivy League school, go.  If not, choose the school with the best (nationwide) academic reputation.\n\nHere's a helpful hint for choosing colleges and universities to apply to:\nYou seem to have a passion about the Civil War already.  Look in the bibliographies of the best books you have already read for the scholars that are constantly cited.  Find out where they teach, and then go to the websites of those colleges and universities.  Find out how often they offer courses in your field of interest.  And in your application, be specific about your desire to study with these particular scholars. \n\nI hope this helps!\nBest wishes to you.

I would absolutely recommend Berklee College in Boston. I had a friend who went there several years ago, and I had the good fortune to be able to visit during some of the many performances that get put on, and it really seemed like a first-rate place where many many talented people get to learn a lot.

You should check out Syracuse, although it's in upstate NY, and not very close to NYC. It's journalism/media studies program is superb, and it's theatre program is quite good.  NYU might also be a good choice for you; its Tisch school of the arts (including theatre) has an especially good reputation.  And of course, it's right in NYC.\n\nIf your GPA and SAT scores are really outstanding, Vassar and Yale might be worth looking into as well.  Both are just a very short train ride away from NYC.

Middlebury and Bennington are the best colleges in Vermont.\nBoth are highly selective, and applicants should be in the top tenth of their class, have outstanding SAT scores and GPAs, superb letters of recommendation, and special qualities or skills that set them apart from the crowd.\n\nUVM (University of Vermont) is also a great school, and while still selective in terms of admission, will admit students with slightly lower GPAs and SATs.\n\nBest wishes to your niece.

Oxford isn't held that high anymore. I'd say Cambridge(UK), Harvard (US), and Berkley (US) are regarded as the best....but this is a generalization....it depends on what you want to study...if it's electronics MIT(US) is the BEST hands down. If you want a good architecture program then its Princeton(UK), London School of Architecture(UK) and Barcelona Architectural Academy (Spain). It all depends.....

Julliard is over rated. My honest suggestion is if you are interested in opera, head to the west coast. There are some good schools (USC, CSULB, and Chapman) that have good undergraduate programs (although USC is more grad based) in any case make sure that the program you are looking at has not only a good teacher for you but also opportunities for undergraduate performance in opera. If you are never going to get on stage in an opera...what's the point of going to that school to study opera? Oh and Cincinatti school of music is good too...but again...graduate centered opera. (don't go to a choral school...go to an opera school)

The link is to Peterson's Guide to Colleges, and is to a list of colleges and universities that offer Portuguese as a major. I don't think the list is exhaustive, but it's a decent start.

Harvard Buisness school is the best. Look into Yale and Oxford.
