<p>Fair enough. So you decided on Saint Andrews?</p>
<p>In order of preference (considering a number of factors)</p>
<ol>
<li>MIT</li>
<li>CALTECH</li>
<li>CMU</li>
<li>Princeton</li>
<li>Cornell</li>
<li>Rutgers</li>
<li>Duke</li>
</ol>
<p>Might be headed off to CMU.</p>
<p>I'm not an International, but I do plan on applying internationally, lol.</p>
<p>1.Wellesley
2.UChicago</p>
<p>If I don't get into either of those, I'm taking advantage of my Italian diploma!!</p>
<p>3)Universita' degli Studi di Bologna (most likely this one)
4)Universita' degli Studi di Firenze
5)Universita' di Roma - La Sapienza
6)Universita' degli Studi di Pisa
7)Universita' degli Studi di Siena</p>
<p>If its for economics, or policy, or one of LSE's core subjects, especially at the graduate level, there are many people who would choose the LSE over Cambridge.</p>
<p>Cambridge's strength is in breadth and thats why, like a true heavyweight, wins a lot of battles. But in its niche, the LSE can beat of all the competition in the UK. </p>
<p>I wouldn't pick the LSE over HYPSM though - you can't compete with the clout of the American universities.</p>
<p>My top 10 (7 just isn't enough) in no particular order, in my fields, and not based simply on prestige but on my gut feelings and interests:</p>
<ol>
<li>Harvard</li>
<li>Stanford</li>
<li>Cambridge</li>
<li>LSE</li>
<li>Stockholm School of Economics</li>
<li>Sciences-Po</li>
<li>MIT</li>
<li>UPenn</li>
<li>Tilburg</li>
<li>Yale</li>
</ol>
<p>That is why I picked LSE.</p>
<p>Back before I got into NYU and was applying, my list was:</p>
<ol>
<li>NYU</li>
<li>USC</li>
<li>Boston U</li>
<li>Calarts</li>
<li>UCLA</li>
<li>Academy of Art U</li>
<li>Wesleyan</li>
</ol>
<p>This is for Film & TV, mind you; not a general list.</p>
<p>For Film and TV NYU & USC are really good.</p>
<p>psmyth- I still haven't decided. Warwick econ is now on the table, and still waiting on a couple more results.</p>
<p>unclebob- Tilburg???? I didn't know anyone had even heard of that school outside academic circles. That's awesome that you know it. It's a great school.</p>
<p>@ psmyth: I know. That's why they were at the top of my list. :)</p>
<p>Upenn (wharton)
Mit (sloan)

<li>Princeton</li>
<li>Cambridge</li>

<li>Universit? de Gen?ve</li>
<li>University of St Andrews</li>
<li>London School of Economics and Political Science</li>
<li>University of Wales, Aberystwyth</li>
</ol>
<p>These are my top 5, and I am 100% I will apply. However, I am going to apply to 3 others in the UK, and perhaps some others somewhere else in Europe. Does anyone know of any other good universities in Europe (Spanish, Italian, French, or English-speaking) that have a program in International Relations?</p>

<p>Italy:
Universita' degli Studi di Bologna
Universita' degli Studi di Firenze
Universita' di Roma - La Sapienza
Universita' degli Studi di Pisa
Universita' degli Studi di Siena</p>
<p>They have great International Relations programs within their Political Science faculties, that's why I'm applying to them :)</p>
<p>Spain:
Universitat Aut?noma de Barcelona
Universidad Complutense de Madrid
Universidad de Sevilla</p>
<p>Oh ok, I researched but I didn't find anything. Can you get into Italian universities with an American US Diploma + AP's (I know you can't for Spanish universities, you need the Selectividad)?</p>
<p>You can, but you have to be an Italian citizen.
I believe I read in another thread that you were part Italian and you were fluent..Do you have dual-citizenship? Or are you a citizen of any other EU country? If so, still apply. Italian Universities accept foreign students on a case by case basis.</p>
<p>Are you in IB? or is your school recognized by the Italian/Spanish/French government (like mine)? If so, you're eligible to attend.</p>
<p>Well my father is spanish and my mother is italian, but I only hold spanish citizenship. However, I am going to get my italian citizenship soon.
I am not in the IB program (I wish I was but they don't have it at my school, it's harder but it would make it so much easier for me to go to university in Europe). However, I am in the AP program and I am going to get the AP International Diploma (+5 extra AP exams, so a total of 10 AP's).
I don't think my school is recognized by the Italian or Spanish government, it's an American International school. However, I am sure I could get my studies validated, that would be no problem.</p>
<p>Do you think I would be eligible to attend?</p>
<p>Of course you're eligible to attend! If you look at the requirements on any Italian Uni's website, you'll see that they accept EU citizens, regardless of the diploma they have. </p>
<p>Universit? Ca' Foscari di Venezia (applies to all Italian Universities)

If you belong to the category of European Union Citizen you can enrol in university courses with unlimited access as long as you have a diploma or degree that is both valid and recognised<a href="more%20info%20-%20%5Bb%5Dla%20sapienza%5B/b%5D%20-%20%5Burl%5Dhttp://www.uniroma1.it/studenti/stranieri/%5B/url%5D">/quote</a></p>
<p>I believe you'll only have to take a test in Italian language & culture. But I'm sure you can easily pass that.</p>
