Comparative Literature Rankings

[theoryjunky]

Hi there,

I was just wondering if anyone could give me a ranking of the top comp. lit. programs? I just got into UC Irvine for comp. lit. but I have no idea whether it is a good program.

Thanks,

Check phds.org

They have customizable rankings based on several criteria from the NRC survey.

UC Irvine has a good program... what do you want to study though?

I'd go by U.S. News English rankings and Times Higher Education rankings for overall reputation. Irvine has a good program. Did you get accepted to other schools? You can't always trust the NRC rankings. For instance they rank Maryland at the top with Harvard etc, but that's not really in line with its reputation.

Sorry, this is a wicked old post, my bad.
