<p>Which Ivy League school has the best Wildlife Biology program? What are some other schools that have the BEST wildlife programs?</p>
<p>University of Alaska, Fairbanks.</p>
<p>It’s the Ivy League of Interior Alaska.</p>
<p>From what quick searching I have done, it seems that the only Ivy that actually offers a degree in wildlife biology is Cornell. The other ones probably have some sort of zoology or ecology + environmental science major. I would say your second best bet would be Yale which has historically been strong in ecology and environmental science.</p>
<p>Here’s a list of prominent “wildlife biologists”:

It’s a mixed group with a variety of interests (including entertainers and a search-for-Bigfoot guy), but one school that comes up repeatedly in their backgrounds is the University of Wisconsin - Madison. </p>
<p>Different research universities will have different areas of excellence (zoology v. wildlife ecology, orinthology v. primate studies, etc.) If you’re a HS student, it probably makes sense to focus first on cost, personal fit, selectivity, and overall academic quality. </p>
<p>If you’d consider a small liberal arts college, check out Colorado College.
The school’s Rocky Mountain location and unusual one-course-at-a-time “Block Plan” provide good opportunities for field work in areas such as wildlife biology, ecology, botany, and geology.

With a Fall 2013 admit rate of 22%, Colorado College would be less selective than Cornell or the other Ivies, but more so than Wisconsin.</p>
<p>Why not focus on the best wildlife biology schools, regardless of the football league?</p>
<p>In which state do you live, New York? If so, the NYS statutory Ag college at Cornell would be a no-brainer because of the discount. Cornell is awesome.</p>
