Question: What are the best universities for political science?
I don't have high enough SATs to get into an Ivy League school, but I'd love to get into a good political science program (preferably on the East Coast, but others are fine as well) that would help start either a career as a political analyst or an elected official. Any suggestions?

There are some outstanding universities with political science programs on the East Coast. Some that come to mind are the following. Be aware that these universities have their specialties within the field of political science, so I would check out each of these universities individually: American University George Washington University Georgetown University Johns Hopkins University Swarthmore College Tufts University Williams College New York University There are some other universities that also have excellent political science programs, but they're not on the East Coast. These include: Claremont McKenna College Pomona College University of Chicago Washington University in St. Louis Macalester College University of Michigan Good luck!

I don’t know the exact GPA need to have to go to Georgetown University. But you definitely need to get great grades. A great GPA and a great SAT score are a must. After you accomplish this, start thinking about ways you can separate yourself from the competition. Extracurricular activities are very important. Lastly, make sure you want to go to Georgetown University. I know a lot of students that thought they wanted to go to their dream school, but when they got in and went to that school, they were really disappointed. You can get information about the academic requirements here: http://www.unigo.com/georgetown_university/rankings and reviews of Georgetown University by actual students here: http://www.unigo.com/georgetown_university/reviews

Question: What are some good colleges in the south?
I live in Maine and I am thinking about going to school down south. I want to major in either occupational or physical therapy. I don't think I want to go to a school in the deep south but somewhere like Kentucky, Tennessee or Virginia. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good schools in those areas or close to it. Thanks!

Question: What is the difference between Columbia College and University?
I know that Columbia College exists on the university campus...but what is the difference? Is it considered to be a sort of junior college? Do they both offer the same degrees? Is the only difference that Columbia College requires full-time enrollment?

Not to be confused with Columbia College in Chicago, which is completely unrelated to Columbia University, this Columbia College is the basic undergraduate school of the university (Engineering is separate, and there is a different undergraduate program for nontraditional students called the School of General Studies, but everyone else goes through Columbia College). Other schools following the same model are Harvard University, with its Harvard College, and Georgetown University, with Georgetown College.

The best Christian colleges in the US are all good for science. They are: 1. Notre Dame university 2. Boston College 3. Georgetown University 4. Villanova University 5. Holy Cross University 6. Marquette University. There are a few other reputable Christian universities -- like Southern Methodist University. Most colleges that call themselves "Christian" (like Liberty) are not very good academically. The truth is that you are better off going to a good school and practicing your faith on your own.
