    They are all excellent, exceptionally competitive universities with top-notch programs in Psychology and Political Science. I would rank Stanford as the best from my own personal experiences, but I'm biased. Official rankings vary based on the institution doing the ranking. According to the ranking linked below Stanford is third in the world for Psychology and second in the US for Political Science.

    You can see how the other schools rank.

    Oh, and psychology is not a "worthless major," as the troll in blue erroneously stated, but it is a major you have to carefully consider because it has more risk. On its own it (and political science) have limited job opportunities, but both can be excellent launching pads for graduate programs. Many psych majors at Stanford actually go to law school. That's my ambition.
