<p>Does anyone know the best college, or top rated college(s), for Socio-Cultural anthropology? I'm still a freshman in high school, but I have an idea of what I want to do, so I need to see what goals I want to make. I'm thinking of University of Illinois, but thats a pretty tough college to get into is what my dad said, so I need others to look at as well. Keeping options open, ya know?</p>
<p>Rayna, some schools (some are tougher to get in than others) to maybe look at that have that particular major or concentration are Missouri, Vermont, Rutgers (New Brunswick/main campus), Delaware, Suny Stony Brook, Boston University, Chicago, Columbia and Northern Arizona.</p>
<p>Actually, University of Arizona is supposed to be one of the best programs in the country, and it isn't too hard to get into.</p>
<p>Poi's list is good as well, but I've definitely heard the most positive things about U of A.</p>
<p>Check out the CollegeBoard search feature. That will help you identify an initial list of 'match' schools, and you can work from there.</p>
<p>Thanks guys, that helps a lot. I'll check out some of those schools. I didnt know there was a search feature O.o Of course I just joined three days ago. Thanks again</p>
<p>Rayna, Illinois is very selective for Engineers, but for A&S students, it is not that selective. Arizona is indeed excelent in Anthropology. Other excellent and not-too-selective Anthropology departments can be found at the following universities:</p>
<p>Arizona State University
Indiana University-Bloomington
Pennsylvania State University-Unibersity Park
Rutgers University-New Brunswick
Southern Methodist University
State University of New York-Binghampton
State University of New York-Stony Brook
University of Arizona
University of Florida
University of Massachusetts-Amherst
University of New Hampshire
University of New Mexico</p>
<p>If you prefer a smaller environment and are willing to settle for a smaller program, here are some schools with solid Anthropology departments:</p>
<p>Alma College
Beloit College
Millsaps College
Ohio Weseyan University
St. Lawrence University
University of Tulsa</p>
<p>Of course, if you do well in high school, you can shoot for better overall universities with excellent Anthropology departments. </p>
