<p>psych is a pretty big department at most schools, but some are known more than others. I recommend Boston U and Clark U. Generally, though, most large research and top private schools will have great psych departments.</p>
<p>Surprisingly, you might consider Illinois Institute of Technology right in Chicago - psychology is a strong department in an otherwise engineering/architecture-centric school. Admissions tends to be pretty stats oriented, so doing well on standardized tests would be a plus.</p>
