Yes, look for strong classics departments. Also, possibly medieval studies programs. Just about any classics department will have someone who is familiar with koine, but you may need to dig a bit deeper for strength in the subject area.

Bryn Mawr, Haverford, Swarthmore, and U Penn have cross-registration. Students at Bryn Mawr & Haverford can major at either campus, so check both of those out. Getting between BMC and HC is a snap. It is a bit trickier to get to Swat or Penn, but students interested in offerings at the other institutions do manage to pull that off - especially the ones who ditch classics for Archaeology and then decide they need one of the other ancient languages taught at Penn.
