<p>Anyone know of any specific colleges with strengths in the classics/Italian/archaeology?</p>
<p>No ivies please if possible.</p>
<p>the best in these fields is the University of Chicago.</p>
<p>I agree with Chicago. I would also add:</p>
<p>Harvard University
University of California-Berkeley
University of California-Los Angeles
University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
University of Pennsylvania</p>
<p>When you say "no Ivies," do you mean Ivies specifically or highly selective schools in general? If your stats aren't good enough for Ivies, Chicago and Alexandre's list would be reaches too. What are your stats? Do you have any preferences about what type of college you want? I can think of quite a few colleges with strengths in those fields.</p>
<p>Bryn Mawr is your best bet if you don't mind the single-sex environment. Haverford would be a good choice if co-ed is a must.</p>
