<p>Does anybody know of a college with a bachelor degree in astrophysics, preferably in the South, but I'd be willing to go anywhere?</p>

<p>U of Chicago has the one of the very best astrophysics programs in the country.</p>

<p>You can go to [this</a> page](<a href=“http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/]this”>College Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics) and do a search.</p>
<p>Rice and U Oklahoma are two that come to mind.</p>
<p>Rutgers-New Brunswick Campus has a Astrophysics program. However I should say this. Do a regular Physics major as an undergrad, and do astrophysics as a Grad. You don’t want to specialize too early. You will want a strong foundation in Physics first, as it would be necessary to know what Physics is. You’ll want to know Quantum Mechanics, Nuclear physics and so on. Although you will get some of these classes in a astrophysics program, you’ll be focusing more in astronomy based classes, and without a foundation, you may get lost.</p>
<p>What if double majored in Physics and Astronomy, then went on to a graduate program in astrophysics?</p>

<p>I forgot to mention CalTech as well.
duh…
