Anyone know of any good colleges in the UK? I've been looking at a lot of west coast and international schools so I'm just curious.

Oxford? XD

I'm from the US, so I don't know of many schools in the UK.

You're asking a sonic fansite for advice in selecting a college? Are you serious?

Set up a meeting with your school counselor to discuss options and concerns- or google it.

Lol, I tried both, the problem is, my college advisor is a frustrated old woman with IBS and some of the web sites for international colleges look more mediocre than the one my old middle school had. It's hard to sort them out.

Besides, tons of UK users here, it seemed like a better source than anyone over where I am, that's why I was asking.

Something tells me I won't be going to Oxford anyway.

Is there a reason why you're looking so far from home for potential schools? The states have some good ones, don't they?

Well, regardless...There must be a message board somewhere where people are discussing international post-secondary options. That would be your best bet.

I'm looking at colleges around here too, but I'm interested in some international ones, my mom went to school in Vienna. Besides, I've got close family and friends in the UK, and my roommates (who are older than I am) have already sent some applications there.

Looks like it should be a big help.

The BEST universities are the ones that cost a lot of money. If you are willing to splash the cash I would recommend:

~ Oxford
~ Cambridge
~ St. Andrews
~ Glasgow University

Of course this depends on what subject field you are wishing to graduate in. For example Glasgow is one of the best for Doctors and Lawyers. However every where is different.

I would recommend that site Infinity has posted up to have a looksee. You need to be more specific on your intentions of subjects are though before I can offer any help.
