College in NYC vs. San Francisco (New York, York: school, university, location)

[sloopymk]

I am currently a college student at the University of San Francisco. At the moment, I am not content with the school and also in a sense, the location. I will most likely look for a school, possibly in New York, that is more challenging, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. I would also prefer to be in a larger school with a diverse student population. I already know of NYU and Columbia, but could someone make suggestions that are less commonly known?

Thanks.
