edit: thought this was posted in the Ugrad forum. Graduate business school is a different beast though. If you’re in a big city, you’re probably good. (removed comment denouncing NYU’s scene)

University of Texas would be my choice for #1. It’s in Austin, near downtown. Both the live music scene and the bar scene in Austin are unparalleled anywhere in the US. UT has the most extensive university bus system in the country, which includes transportation to and from the bars. The weather is among the best. Austin has several lakes and lots of parks (always ranked at or near the top of the greenest cities in the US). The area around the university is very walkable, and people ride their bikes all over the city.

That being said, this is very subjective, based on one’s interests.
