<p>I would really like to go to a school with an urban campus, what are some top schools in middle sized to large cities?</p>
<p>harvard, MIT, uchic, columbia, tufts, and nyu come to mind</p>
<p>well first of all wat do u mean TOP?
TOP 20,50 or 100 ?
here are several schools located in US "global cities"</p>
<p>Chicago:
- UChicago
- Loyola Chicago
- NWestern</p>
<p>New York City:
- NYU
- Columbia</p>
<p>Boston:
-BC
-BU
- Harvard
- Tufts
-Brandeis
-MIT</p>
<p>Los Angeles:
- UCLA
- USC</p>
<p>San Francisco:
- CAL Berkeley</p>
<p>Philly:
- Penn
- Drexel</p>
<p>Washington:
- AU
- GWU
- GTown</p>
<p>Atlanta:
- Emory
- GT</p>
<p>Miami:
- UMiami</p>
<p>Seattle:
- WashU</p>
<p>Baltimore:
- John Hopkins</p>
<p>Anyways all those are in big cities. Most named as "global cities"
Moreover all schools are Tier 1 schools according to US News. Some are ivy Leagues, while the rest are in the top 50.</p>
<p>There are all sorts of 'urban campuses.' You should look into them to see which one is more your style.</p>
<p>There are the 'walled-off garden' ones (Columbia)
There are the ones with no real cohesive/grassy campus (NYU)
And there are the ones somewhere in between.</p>
<p>I am particularly fond of the Columbia and Penn campuses. One minute you're in the urban jungle, another you're in Elysian gardens...</p>
<p>PS check out Penn's BioPond...the epitome of an "urban oasis" <a href="http://www.bio.upenn.edu/facilities/greenhouse/biopond/%5B/url%5D">http://www.bio.upenn.edu/facilities/greenhouse/biopond/</a></p>
<p>acarta....the University of Washington has a campus in Seattle. the school that the majority of CC posters refer to as WashU is Washington University at St Louis.</p>
<p>Both, however, are great schools in urban areas.</p>
