Hi, current college student here.\n\nI agree with matt's responses - they are mostly correct. However, he is missing a few important points. For one, the amount of financial aid that you qualify for is very important. This really also depends on the school's calculation policies, but you can get a general estimate from a site like "http://www.finaid.org/calculators/finaidestimate.phtml." Remember that this is strictly an estimate though.\n\nWhy is this important? Because you have to see how much financial aid a school gives (assuming that you qualify for a decent amount). Schools like Harvard are expensive, but they will cover 100% of your financial need. Other schools might be cheaper but unable to subsidize your education. I know that at Harvard (my school), there's rather generous financial aid - families with income under 60k don't have to pay anything, and under 80k barely pays - and it scales upward to some degree.\n\nAlso, there are a lot of great state universities - and you should look for these in the U.S. News and World Report "http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/rankings/rankindex_brief.php" (Just go out and get a magazine version). But these schools will only be a good value if they are in your home state.\n\nAlso, I wouldn't consider anything out of the top 10 a "bad school." For example, UC Berkeley is ranked 25 (#1 in public schools), but I would never say that it's a bad school (despite Harvard being #1 overall =P )\n\nGood luck!

Harvard and Stanford are probably on the top of that list

The top 5: Harvard, Stanford, Penn, MIT, Northwestern, and Chicago.  The other top 45 B-Schools, according to US News & World report, can be found by using the link below.  \n\nAs for getting in, well...all programs have different strengths and weaknesses, but generally, having good "real world" work experience, a good academic background, and a drive that comes through in your app (I once knew someone who was waitlisted at the U of Michigan [#11 on the list], but requested an interview, which was not required of applicants, and therefore gained admission by showing drive, confidence, and determination).\n\nGood luck!

The top 10 best universities in the world are in the United States and England.  Some include, Harvard Univ, Stanford Univ, University of Cambridge, University of California - Berkley, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Princeton University.  Of course, the idea of the best university is largely based on opinion, but these schools are chosen because they excel in many important factors.

ever thought of MIT? it's the one of the most powerful universities in technology and computers (if you're including universities in your options that is.)

It's Harvard University in USA
463272
check www.forbes.com\n\nIt gives the list and also abt non US business school

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.....
