    Lancaster is one of the "new" universities opened in the 60s, rated 10th of 113 out all UK universities according to the Good University Guide, and 7th for research according to the latest RAE.

    Sheffield Hallam is one of the "new new" universities, still branded as an "dodgy ex poly" in a manner which is more prejudice than genuine reflection of quality. It is the 6th largest university in the UK, apparently.

    To the OP: What course are you planning on studying? Universities can have very different reputation in different subject?

    These are both good schools. At the U, lots of bikinis!

    For engineering, Cal Tech, University of Michigan, UCLA also good schools.

    Bikinis is not exactly what i meant by "good" colleges but thanks for the info :D

    And I'm going to start my graduation course this year. These colleges are the ones which have a tie up with a college in my country. It's a special course where I study 2 years in my country and the next 2 in one of these colleges.

    For Australia, I can say University of New South Wales is reputable and although you didn't mention, University of Technology Sydney is as well.

    You forgot the University of Hawaii, where all the classes are being cut being cut because the administration can't handle budgets but also want to make sure they get their big paychecks.

    Wooo!
