Math Programs around the Midwest

<p>I have a 3.5 gpa and a 31 act, 33 math 32 science 32 reading, and 28 english. I'm looking for some math programs in the midwest. I searched for a a list of schools online but i've really been coming up with not alot. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>University of Chicago, University of Michigan, Northwestern, University of Wisconsin, University of Minnesota, University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign, Purdue, Penn State (very roughly in that order) and probably a couple smaller non-research institutions I'm less familiar with. If you're from the Midwest, odds are your state flagship school will have a fairly strong math program (even the ones not listed), and should be a viable option with those statistics.</p>

<p>DD2 is also looking at math. She considered mostly LACs: Carleton, Knox, Cornell College (Iowa), Keyon, Oberlin, Case Western.</p>

<p>St. Olaf should be added to the good suggestions above. It produces more math majors who eventually earn Ph.D. degrees in math than any other college in the country, and it is very credible among all the top graduate programs in mathematics.</p>

<p>DePaul and Loyola Chicago.</p>

<p>I'm looking for a place that is challenging and the kids are smart but laid back and down to earth. I hate people who aren't at school for learning but are just playing the game to play the game. Thanks for the replies.</p>

<p>shameless bump</p>

<p>Pure math, applied, actuarial, statistics? Big school or small school? Planning to pursue a Master's/PhD? We've said about as much as there is to say based on what you've told us. Anything more specific is going to depend on your personal goals.</p>

<p>Pure math... I just really enjoy doing math. Money isn't really a concern to me because my tastes are simple. I do plan on getting a masters and then a phd.</p>
