Does anyone have a list of astronautical engineering programs?

And would anyone want to give me a preliminary evaluation? I have a bachelor's in math with a minor in astrophysics. I also have two masters degrees in math and math education. My GPA in all of these degrees was around 3.6 for each one. My GRE was 800Q, 480V, 4.5AW.

I'm interested in space mission design, astrodynamics, celestial mechanics, & planetary science. Secondary interests include math and astronomy education.

That sounds like a mix between astrophysics and aerospace engineering.

It may not be called aerospace at all Universities. I know that a lot of places have it as a branch of mechnical engineering. I'd suggest snooping around the websites of some engineering schools and find out how they categorize it.

you may want to start by looking at

UIUC (http://www.ae.illinois.edu/)

UT-Austin (http://www.ae.utexas.edu/)

Purdue (https://engineering.purdue.edu/AAE/)

USC (http://ae-www.usc.edu/)

Cornell (http://www.mae.cornell.edu/)

All of the above are top 20 programs in AE. They are reach schools for almost any candidate but it should give you a feel for what those programs are looking for.
