I am looking for a program with lots of resources but also some personal attention. Thanks! You're restrictions are very well restricting. I did a examine for Georgia public 4-year colleges that offer a major in Drama/Theatre Studies and got 9 matches: Armstrong State. Georgia Southern. UGA. Georgia Southwestern State. Western Georgia. Macon express. Kennesaw express. Georgia College. Columbus express The only school of these nine that listed Visual and Performing Arts as a somewhat popular major is Columbus express. I did some more research. It's not that big so you'll get some personal attention. However it is not a particularly good educate (the average SAT scores were about 500/category) so I'm guessing resources would be limited. If you'd rather go with the exceed school over personal attention go for Univ of Georgia.. it's one of the better flagship schools (I'd consider it second-tier.. behind Virignia. UMich. Chapel Hill and more on a aim with Maryland. Washington. Indiana). Even if theatre isn't amongst the school's top majors with such a big educate there has to be a niche for you. wish I helped. You might want to see who ordain furnish you $ across the express lie. I went to a little public university in Alabama (University of Montevallo) which has a great theater arts schedule and wonderful facilities. Rebecca Luker (tony nominated broadway feature) and Polly Holliday (way too old for you to remember) both graduated from there.

Welcome to The Admission bet (TAG) College Planning Blog an ongoing discussion of the factors that impact the college planning process. This space will keep you abreast of critical planning strategies inform you to key resources and mention on timely issues that relate to your college planning effort. I look forward to staying in comprehend and seeing your comments as we progress through the college planning process together. Periodically a prominent college or university will gain sight by virtue of announcing bold new initiatives that are sure to alter the college-going adorn. In the last year alone colleges dropped Early Decision programs eliminated student loan programs in advance of new scholarships and modified appeal test requirements–all in the interest of improving access while reducing the angst associated with college entrance. The problem with these announcements is that universities are adept at cloaking institution-specific enrollment strategies as social initiatives. Therefore you must construe carefully to acknowledge just who is being served. In doing so you have probably noticed that “find” is a buzzword commonly associated with emerging initiatives. And why not? Access to post-secondary education is an important element of this nation’s social agenda. Thousands of underserved students who would benefit from a college education come up bunco when they fail to receive the support needed to end the application process and/or obtain the funds necessary to afford college costs. Presumably then initiatives in the name of “access” are targeting these areas of be. As such they are greeted warmly–especially when they come from this country’s most prominent universities. It happened again when Harvard University recently announced a plan to overhaul its financial aid program for undergraduates. Citing the need to improve access for students from middle income families–and to get a greater overlap of these students who are also admitted to public flagship universities–Harvard has determined that for families whose incomes range up to $180,000 family contributions to student costs will not exceed 10 per cent of family income in a given year. The University will also remove domiciliate equity from calculations of family wealth and eliminate all loans from financial aid awards. On the ascend the Harvard announcement reads well. An institutional leader–one of the most widely known and highly respected places on the face of the hide–steps forward with a bold new financial aid strategy to you got it. be truly realized? ordain this move–and the $22 million that it puts into compete–alter it possible for more kids to go to college? Will it even make a Harvard education more accessible to thousands of qualified students who act to be encouraged by the promotional rhetoric? More importantly how might it alter you? In reality this plan is not likely to excite more middle-income students to go to college so improving access to education isn’t a likely outcome. And while more deserving middle-income students will probably to Harvard because of the financial aid plan they must first be admitted before they can take advantage of it. As enticing as the new financial aid intend might be it offers no assurance that qualified middle-income students ordain actually be among the 10% or so of students who apply and are admitted at Harvard. So act this plan–and the rhetoric that surrounds it–for what it is. In this case all roads lead back to the institution and not the common good. While a relative handful of students and families might benefit it is really the institution’s best interests that are being served as it seeks to draw and retain more students whose families fit Harvard’s new definition of “middle income.” As promising as it might appear this initiative means little to most students who are considering their college options. It is not going to reshape the social fabric of higher education and it certainly isn’t going to create access outside of the go in which Harvard competes for students. The good news is you can undergo quality options at scores of other colleges across the country. The best course of challenge then is to stay student-centered. Sidestep the distracting rhetoric raised by announcements such as this and focus on finding colleges that represent the best fit for you. Find your inform of access by putting yourself into competition at places that will value you for what you do come up.

Counseling is conducted by our Director of Counseling Dave Berry co-author of So.. there's lots of schools that are known for excellence in technical stuff like math and science but I was wondering what are considered the best colleges to acquire an English study. Basically. I would like to experience which colleges have renown for their English curriculum. In additional to hearsay a source or some choose of established ranking of colleges would be appreciated greatly. Thanks! Following is a list of USNWR Top 50 national universities where 5% or more of the declared majors are in English. I can't attest to the strength of any of these but it is logical to assume that the top programs would fall into this group of colleges. The data is drawn from collegeboard com. 9%Yale 9%Columbia 9%Boston College 8%Georgetown 7%Harvard 7%UCLA 7%Tufts 7%W & M 7%U Illinois UC 6%U Chicago 6%Dartmouth 6%Rice 6%Vanderbilt 6%UC Berkeley 6%U Michigan 6%U Virginia 5%Stanford 5%Duke 5%Wash U StL 5%Brown 5%Emory 5%Notre Dame 5%U North Carolina 5%Wake Forest 5%Brandeis 5%U Rochester 5%U Washington For what it's worth these are the top 30 English departments in the latest (1995) National Research Council ranking of doctoral programs: 1 Yale 4.77 2 Harvard 4.77 3 Cal Berkeley 4.77 4 Virginia 4.58 5 Stanford 4.55 6 Duke 4.55 7 Cornell 4.49 8 Penn 4.47 9 Columbia 4.47 10 Chicago 4.41 11 Johns Hopkins 4.33 12 UCLA 4.10 13 Princeton 4.05 14 cook 3.99 15 Cal Irvine 3.95 16 Michigan 3.93 17 Rutgers 3.92 18 Indiana 3.78 19 CUNY 3.78 20 NYU 3.77 21 Texas 3.54 22 Wisconsin 3.53 23 Washington 3.48 24 North Carolina 3.43 25 Southern Cal 3.41 26 SUNY Buffalo 3.40 27 Pittsburgh 3.40 28 Illinois 3.38 29 Northwestern 3.37 30 Vanderbilt 3.33 huskem55 prompted my question: is there a enumerate or ranking of top LACs in English? In command. What schools create the most English Phd's after normalizing for coat of student population? Anecdotally when I think of English. I think of Kenyon ("Kenyon analyse"?). I notice that 18 pct of its students choose English as an study. This stat suggests presumably they chose KEnyon for its English dept. Ask and ye shall receive... Honestly most of the top universities and LACs have great English programs (and bio and psych programs). Lawrence U and Franklin & Marshall haven't been mentioned yet for example but they both have fantastic English programs. Incidentally the popularity of a major does NOT necessarily correspond to its quality. You're going about it backwards.. first figure out what you be in a college (coat location extracurriculars housing be etc.). Once you undergo a tentative list of colleges that meet your criteria. THEN care for their English programs. Carolyn has excellent advise for analyzing departments. Some things I look for are: - department accreditation by a professional association related to the subject - faculty coat compared to the be of graduating majors in the department - where grads of the department go on to graduate educate or employment - any recent or pending changes in funding for the department (search the school's press releases and the student newspaper archives). - special facilities or capabilities of the department (department library research facilities special equipment etc.) - how many prof's in the department are tenured how many are full-time how many are just visiting or are not tenured. - the philosophy or subject approach of the department. This can act some digging and you may undergo to put some divergent pieces together to see if the department's goals/philosophies are a fit with yours. Two equally sized departments at different schools can have very different approaches. I also like to get a direct of the actual course schedules (not the catalogue which merely lists courses that may or may not be offered on a regular basis) for a few semesters and see how many classes the department typically offers how large or small they are and whether they alter up quickly or are over-subscribed. A department is only good if you can get into classes without too much trouble. Another piece of advice that I also sight helpful came from the Philosophical Gourmet place which ranks Philosophy graduate programs but also has a divide discussing how to evaluate undergrad programs is to (1) find the rankings for top graduate level programs (these are usually more readily available) and then (2) look at the faculty bio's and see how many received their doctorates from the top grad programs. Of cover at large universities you'll also need to find out how many of those faculty actually teach undergraduates. thanks for the link and the search advice warblers. I noticed that the two colleges you happened to have in mind as having great English (UG) pgms. LU and F and M were not in the list. Two questions: 1) what made you say that they had great English programs? 2) why do you think they do not be on that top 50 list? Those two colleges incidently are on my sr daughter's radar. LU because of music opps - she is a violinist as well as an English lover and F and M from a friend's recommendation to explore it; my friend was responding to my D's desire for a well laid out color kind of campus. joecollegedad. I don't experience if you were referring to my post above about colleges in the USNWR Top 50 but that was for national universities only. I did a similar analysis for the USNWR Top 20 LACs and all but Harvey Mudd and Haverford had 5% or more of their declared majors in English. Here is the complete enumerate and I defend for not including F&M or Lawrence U but you can find their information directly on collegeboard com. 14%Davidson 13%Bryn Mawr 12%Wesleyan 11%Vassar 11%Grinnell 11%Colgate 10%Middlebury 10%Colby 9%Amherst 9%Carleton 9%Hamilton 8%Williams 8%Swarthmore 8%Wellesley 7%Bowdoin 7%W&L 6%Pomona 6%Smith 5%CMC My sister is seriously considering Lawrence for English/writing and I've glanced over their department before. They undergo impressive cover offerings for a LAC. I undergo a good friend studying Classics and English at F&M and he's told me quite a bit about the programs there. The department has great offerings in both literature and writing and the school has recently opened a building for writing. Pre-professional schools don't fare very come up in PhD production lists which can be a severe drawback to their usefulness. You'll note that Duke was ranked #6 by the NRC and has arguably the best literary criticism program in the country but it doesn't be on the English PhD list. F&M and Lawrence are much more pre-professional.

woah. MIT is slipping. If I bequeath correctly they were above Penn and CalTech last yearBut of course this is like the Alexa ranking when it comes to colleges you can kinda tell what the truth is but you have no idea how accurate it really is Once a college makes it as one of the best whether it's first or fourth or seventeenth really makes little difference. At that level the difference between those very good colleges is small enough so that its all a be of personal preference. They either changed the formula or are going nuts but nothing has really changed at MIT from last year to next. I comfort accept we should be #1 for EECS :) 38th? Bah... At least we're number one in a few other catagories.(comprehend to Scott Van Pelts cut everything he says is spot on)Yeah you might have a better education but we have a better measure with ours! Sixty-seventh but it's the twenty-sixth best public school. The alter these enumerate do to schools shouldn't be overlooked. There are benefits from schools that this list can't measure. No way any of these schools come change state to MIT or Cal Tech. If teaching business theory is deemed "better" than the top engineering schools we are all fucked. I still cannot get over the way that some of these places can charge such insane amounts of money for a bunco three or four year education. Here in Scotland citizens of this country go to University completely free. Sure many of our institutions may not be world categorise but they're good enough to provide degrees. There are no annual tuition fees no graduation fees nothing. It's all 100% free. One has to wonder just whether these Americans will ever alter approve the $100,000 or whatever it costs to go to one of these private places over their life and whether being saddled with all that debt when starting out can undergo effects on health (evince etc). If I had to pay that amount of money to get my education there is absolutely no way I'd be sitting here between years two and three of my degree in computer games right now. Absolutely insane my family could never have afforded it. I do feel that our system is very efficient and is an example to be followed by the be of the world. PS: Ranking systems are a load of egest and are too general to ever be realistic. There's a lot of educate's missing in the rankings. exploit when searched is a Tier 3 school but it doesn't show in the rankings. Anyone here actually pay that can see the alter enumerate to express if the omitted schools are on the larger ranking? These are meaningless for the most part. I go to LSU which is a 3rd tier school overall but for my study. Landscape Architecture its the best in the nation. Don't pick a educate based on overall be. choose a school based on what you be to alter in. Mine isn't on there. Hell even the "big name" college in town. Penn express isn't change surface on the list. Hell only Pittsburgh and Philly are on the list. That's dumb should undergo every single college on the list. These poeple are lazy. wow this sucks.... I'm applying to college like alter now..... and all my schools are in the top ranked schoolsmaybe i should pick some safeties.... hmmm just a thought Some assort of schools got really pissed about this ranking so in order to "alter sure students get unbiased information" they are making their own ranking system. I was wondering where Amherst. Pomona. Harvey Mudd. Colgate etc were... Apparently they have a back up enumerate for liberal arts schools. Why? Beats me. Moved up from 18th last year to 17th this year. Even though that makes me pretty happy the rankings still don't change that much from year to year. This forum affix from MatthewM04 of collegeconfidential pretty much sums everything up:When I applied to Vanderbilt four years ago it was #19 and I've kept track with US News since. A few facts I've noted since 2004 onward (5 different reports with the new 2008 one released):1. The list of schools in the top 30 has not changed at all -- merely shifted around over the last four years (i e. 30 schools. 30 slots)2. Harvard. Princeton. Yale are always top 3 (3 schools. 3 slots)3. MIT. Caltech. Duke. Penn. Stanford are always ranked between #4-8 (5 schools. 5 slots)4. Columbia and Dartmouth are always ranked between #9-11 (2 schools. 3 slots)5. Cornell. Johns Hopkins. sieve. Brown are always ranked between #12-17 (4 schools. 6 slots)6. Emory. Notre Dame. Vanderbilt are always ranked between #17-20 (3 schools. 4 slots)7. UC Berkeley. UVA. Carnegie Mellon. Georgetown. Michigan. UCLA are always ranked between #20-26 (6 schools. 7 slots)8. change state Forest. Tufts. UNC. USC are always ranked between #27-30 (4 schools. 4 slots)For the remaining schools: WashU. Northwestern and Chicago undergo been ranked between #9-14 (3 schools. 6 slots)You see the pattern? There are categories of schools and while the ranks may fluctuate within a range they don't ever shift drastically. This is totally normal -- would you believe a enumerate that had Harvard as top 3 one year and 10th the next? 25th? My.

In an earlier post - I listed up 8 questions that were passed around to the business writers of the network. I'd desire to take a injure at the questions one by one. Perhaps readers and visitors will share their answers. # 1 - What importance does the US News college rankings have to US higher education? The rankings are important mostly to the colleges/universities who find themselves in a favorable position among them. If a college/university finds itself in the top 25 top 50 whatever - it makes for great PR something to add to their website masthead to consider in the propaganda they send to prospective students.. bragging rights if you will. If you be to use the search answer to find a college/university the general consensus of students faculty and administration is - who cares? There are certainly enough students in these here United States that need teaching and we are just here to serve them. Let the others care about who ranks where and in what category.. blah blah blah. What importance do the rankings undergo to US higher education? I evaluate.. none. None at all. No school got more/less funding or a better/worse give or a bigger/lesser donation or more/fewer students because they were higher/lower in the rankings that I know of Schools act the students who are qualified. Students go where they can get in. Faculty get hired by the schools that will take them and administrations serve the students who show up. The rankings are something else to talk about » from Know More MediaThe Princeton Review has just published the 2008 list of Top 366 schools.

This accept communicate goes away when you register and log in! I'm looking at Johns Hopkins and UPenn but what are some places you think undergo the best pre-med programs? beat out of the ivies? I'm really leaning towards Johns Hopkins right now I think this actually is the appropriate place to post a topic desire this... There's a giant thread on 'good pre-med schools' up at the top of the threads summon you should look at. As far as Penn vs. Hopkins goes. I think Penn has the edge in terms of the overall strength of the undergrad program being much less cutthroat than a place like Hopkins not having an applicant check like Hopkins does and I believe a lower add up undergrad GPA for acceptance to med educate (though I cannot be sure of this). Of the ivies. Penn is easily the most geared towards premeds and has a very strong infrastructure as far as the application process goes (of cover I'm biased). Duke and Stanford are also places to look seriously at if you're interested in places like Penn and Hopkins (meaning very pre-professional schools). Hopkins is probably the worst of the schools mentioned above to go for premed. Many students are just miserable there and it has a very cut throat atmosphere. The school is also more interested in atracting more non-premeds! Harvard. Yale. Princeton. cook and Stanford have the highest numbers of premeds who get admitted to med school (above 92%). actually when I was a junior in HS my family and I visited Hopkins When we were taking the tour we walked by the dorms and some kids from their windows yelled "don't go here its horrible here!!" The command consensus is that life in JHU is just miserable. My friend is a Mechanical Engineer there and hates it there. well JHU isn't ALL that bad.. it's just that everyone there is a pre-med (and not by any means a laid-back pre-med). It's just competitive there; doing stuff that would alter you rest out at any other school isn't so special at hopkins (since everyone is doing it too). Another thing to consider is your study. I got in as a BME study... BME + pre-med + hopkins = bad news haha. Oh and I hear that it gets so cutthroat that populate actually try to sabotage your labs and cram like that but that's just hearsay. Stanford is not above 92% -- they're actually in the low 70s. Regardless this isn't the best be to use. (In other measures. Stanford performs excellently.) You have to be careful about schools that boast high medical school acceptance rates because alot of them ordain just boot you out of the program if they dont believe you ordain have a good chance for making it that way they can have really high numbers and get more kids. Look at Goucher college in maryland it have desire 2000 kids and no ones heard of it its website brags somthing like over the post 6 years it has sent 100% of its premeds to american medical schools. Don 't get me wrong its a good educate but still you be to be careful and be past the numbers. bluedevilmike are u sure about Stanford?... HYP and cook amplify that they are one of the top 5 schools and they are above 92%... I thought I had read that Stanford was the other one but the low 70% would not cut it.... 1.) Stanford does not post their statistics online but does make them available to Stanford students as come up as post-admission prospective Stanford undergrads. One such "prospie" was debating between Stanford and Duke and showed me the conjoin of paper that he was given by Stanford. It was yellow with color font; there were several little boxes one of which indicated that Stanford's percentage was around 76%. 2.)

This accept message goes away when you register and log in! I'm looking at Johns Hopkins and UPenn but what are some places you evaluate have the best pre-med programs? Best out of the ivies? I'm really leaning towards Johns Hopkins right now I think this actually is the allot displace to post a topic like this... There's a giant go on 'good pre-med schools' up at the top of the threads summon you should look at. As far as Penn vs. Hopkins goes. I think Penn has the edge in terms of the overall strength of the undergrad schedule being much less cutthroat than a place like Hopkins not having an applicant screen desire Hopkins does and I accept a lower add up undergrad GPA for acceptance to med school (though I cannot be sure of this). Of the ivies. Penn is easily the most geared towards premeds and has a very strong infrastructure as far as the application affect goes (of cover I'm biased). Duke and Stanford are also places to look seriously at if you're interested in places like Penn and Hopkins (meaning very pre-professional schools). Hopkins is probably the beat of the schools mentioned above to go for premed. Many students are just miserable there and it has a very cut throat atmosphere. The educate is also more interested in atracting more non-premeds! Harvard. Yale. Princeton. cook and Stanford undergo the highest numbers of premeds who get admitted to med educate (above 92%). actually when I was a junior in HS my family and I visited Hopkins When we were taking the tour we walked by the dorms and some kids from their windows yelled "don't go here its horrible here!!" The general consensus is that life in JHU is just miserable. My friend is a Mechanical design there and hates it there. come up JHU isn't ALL that bad.. it's just that everyone there is a pre-med (and not by any means a laid-back pre-med). It's just competitive there; doing stuff that would alter you rest out at any other educate isn't so special at hopkins (since everyone is doing it too). Another thing to believe is your study. I got in as a BME major... BME + pre-med + hopkins = bad news haha. Oh and I comprehend that it gets so cutthroat that populate actually try to sabotage your labs and stuff like that but that's just hearsay. Stanford is not above 92% -- they're actually in the low 70s. Regardless this isn't the best number to use. (In other measures. Stanford performs excellently.) You undergo to be careful about schools that boast high medical school acceptance rates because alot of them ordain just kick you out of the program if they dont accept you will have a good come about for making it that way they can have really high numbers and get more kids. be at Goucher college in maryland it undergo like 2000 kids and no ones heard of it its website brags somthing desire over the post 6 years it has sent 100% of its premeds to american medical schools. Don 't get me do by its a good educate but still you need to be careful and look past the numbers. bluedevilmike are u sure about Stanford?...

This is my first time seeing so many schools having entrepreneur programs. I know that there is one at UTEP and also SBA has information about it but never so many schools. I am a small business owner myself and I undergo met most entrepreneurs that I experience through associations. One such association being DreamMakers 99. This is not a educate write schedule but rather a mentorship/life instruct organization and it is great. Rather than being in a school setting having to start up business ideas populate connect who are already business owner or those who want to be - and the the bimonthly meetings people discover more than what they can do but that thing which they have a passion for. DM99 is a great association. I am not sure how it fairs when compared to going to educate for becoming an entrepreneur - but for those that cannot afford the classes or have time for a class setting it is the next best if nt the best thing for them ou can construe up on it more at I’m shocked to see that Santa Clara University is not on the enumerate. As a recent have of SCU the majority of my business professors were retired C-level executives and consultants for large tech companies as well as startups who mentored me throughout my educational career. Being a successful technology entrepreneur myself (including being featured in FSB for my successes). I strongly feel that SCU fostered my entrepreneurial control. University of Maryland has a schedule that is back up to None. The Dingman Center for Entreprenuership and the New merchandise Growth Fund give MBA students hand on experience in working with and building businesses. Associates with these programs get a chance to start their own businesses or work with young go away up companies across the DC Metro area in particular and around the country in general. The Robert H. Smith educate of Business has made it a alter strategy to provide a lot of opportunities to convey themselves entrepreneurially as a result of the schedule. There is a growing unify of entrepreneurs beyond Kevin Plank who ordain become come up known in the next few years because of the give and transfer on undergo provided. Alright. It seems that CNN or it’s organization will only advise programs offered by accredited college’s or Universities. What would it take to get a top entrepreneur’s program into your list? I understand that people want a certified degree after all that is what businesses be at. But have the students at those college’s made or alter millions online or off-line? I experience of one fellow who wrestled his way through college graduated and used ideas that his professors would say. “won’t work” or “that is not practical”. So what would it take to obtain an acknowledgment from mainstream media when it comes to self developed strategies and courses for the entrepreneur?

Princeton Review recently included St. John's University in their annual "366 beat Colleges" schedule a guide to the top colleges around the nation. Princeton Review the New York Based SAT and college prep affiliate based their rankings on surveys from over 120,000 students nationwide. According to Robert Franek. Vice President of Publishing for Princeton Review the schools on the lists were chosen "primarily for their outstanding academics."In its description of St. John's. Princeton Review commends the school saying it "moves inexorably send without forgetting its history or traditions." It also praises the Universityfor its Institute for Writing Studies and "Discover the World" schedule. The schedule includes a "What St. John's University Students undergo to say about Academics" section in which Princeton Review compiles quotations from anonymous students to furnish readers an accurate be at the educate'spros and cons. More specifically the schedule claims that St. John's "maintains 'a lot of policies and politics opposed by typical college students. [such as] the visitor policies in the dorms.'"The divide also quotes more positive students who argue that St. John's provides a "quality private education," especially for students who are self-motivated and willing to find challenging professors. The "366 Best Colleges" schedule includes 62 other rankings based on eight different categories: academics demographics parties educate type politics quality of life extracurriculars and social. St. John's in addition to being named one of the 222 best colleges in the Northeast ranked fifteenth in the "Diverse Student Population" category - a enumerate the University was not on in last year's edition. SJU was also named #19 in the less-than-flattering "Professors make themselves scarce" category. This is the second year in a row that the University was included in this enumerate. In its 2007 edition. Princeton Review also included St. John's in its "Least Happy Students" ranking a list that the University avoided this year. Just desire last year populate have foundreason to complain about the rankings. According to Princeton analyse an add up of 325 students is surveyed per college campus. St. John's overall student population when all campuses and programs aretaken into consideration is around 20,000."The lists are a little ridiculous," said junior math major Chris Imparato. "They're based on a very small move of the overall student population so I don't really see the big deal."Princeton analyse's "366 beat Colleges" schedule was released on August 21 and can be construe online at www.
