Emory and Rutgers (already liste are good candidates for sociology programs as they also have very strong women and gender studies scholars in outside departments.

I was admitted to Rice but decided against going. They send out their invitations for an interview in mid-to-late January followed by a decision letter within two weeks of the interview. Within the letter will include information about your stipend, health insurance, etc. The program is quite new. The faculty are very productive, and I would highly suggest anyone interested in sociology to visit this particular program. It's strong, budding, and the (few) students in the program are thriving.

I have a 3.3 cumulative GPA from a top 20 school, but the majority of my classes have been 300 and 400 level classes. My Sociology GPA is a 3.75. My GRE scores are in the mid-80th percentile for each. How much does your GPA matter in admissions?
