Well, I'm a junior in high school, and I have started my college search. I've always been interested in NYU, and am on their mailing list and everything already. I'm also looking at Columbia in New York.... Anyone know any good schools located in New york or San Francisco (preffered, but not limited to California in whole) that at least have a good theatre program and good language and study abroad programs? (Those would be my minor and major... language and theatre)

New York: There is Yeshiva and Fordham that you missed out. Both are well known private universities and both are religious.. Fordham being Jesuit and Yeshiva being Jewish. Yeshiva is in midtown (i think) and Fordham is in the Bronx. There is also a system of public colleges in NYC called CUNY which most NYC college students are a part of. There are many 4 year colleges and community colleges in the CUNY system including Brooklyn College, City College, Hunter College, Queens College, and Baruch College. These colleges are public and so are cheap to go to. San Francisco has only 2 Universities that have undergraduate colleges. They are the University of San Francisco, which is jesuit and catholic and private. It is in the Richmond district near the park. There is also San Francisco State University which is in the Ingleside district (Southwest San Francisco) and is accessible via the Muni M. It is a public state university that is a part of the California State University system. The University of California San Francisco campus has ONLY graduate and professional level programs. Im not well versed in the individual programs and disciplines that are available at all these universities but I know what the uni's are. San Francisco and New York are fabulous cities for college students (although they are expensive) because you do not need a car in either city and can experience big city life in your early adult years. Plus, going to school in these cities increases your chances of being able to get a job in these cities if you wish to live in them after school, which is a huge plus. Remember that Stanford and Berkeley are the biggest feeders for San Fran jobs and the Ivy League and NYU are for NYC jobs.
