Best Criminal Justice Schools – Top Criminal Justice Colleges
If you are looking for the best criminal justice schools – top criminal justice colleges, universities, and institutes then you are at the right place. This page is dedicated to the best criminal justice degree programs online and on campus, as well as information on the best community colleges, state schools, and private schools offering courses towards a criminal justice degree.
What makes a criminal justice school “BEST” is:
- its accreditation
- its brand power (school name)
- its departmental and programmatic ranking & strength
- its potential for career placement right after graduation
- its ranking in U.S. News and The Princeton Review, amongst others
- my experience and opinion will play a role in picking out the best from the rest
- and last, but not least, your expert input
I need your help. To make this resource the best for every state in the Union I would like your input. If you live in any of the states not mentioned below and know of great criminal justice schools please feel free to leave a comment with your list, and if you can, the reasons these schools would be best. I am hoping that I can get around to researching and writing the blog posts about all the states, but I can’t do it all by myself. Thanks.

I am working with some professors around the U.S. in helping me supplement this list. I hope to have this list up in several months (it’s very hard to get in touch with some of them). As for NC, I can only tell you to try usnews.com and princetonreview.com . Hope this will hold you off for now. I’ll keep on working to get this list up.
