DREAM COLLEGES IN THE U.S.

Stanford University is the No. 1 dream college in the United States. Again. Five years ago, this prestigious California college snatched the top spot away from Harvard, and it's still hanging on to the crown, according to the 15th annual "College Hopes & Worries Survey" of 10,519 college applicants and parents that was conducted by the Princeton Review. (Of the respondents, 81 percent were college applicants, while 19 percent were parents of applicants.) Students and parents were asked this fill-in-the-blank question: "What 'dream college' do you wish you (your child) could attend if acceptance or cost weren't issues?" More than 500 colleges and universities were named. Students' top 10 dream colleges: 

  1. Stanford University 
  2. Harvard College 
  3. Massachusetts Institute of Technology 
  4. New York University 
  5. University of California, Los Angeles 
  6. Columbia University
