Hey there. I'm an international student applying to US grad schools. I'm currently looking to apply to schools relatively good at condensed matter theory (quantum phase transitions, topological phases, non-Fermi liquids, field techniques, spin liquids, MBL, etc). I already have a preliminary list:
Reach:
MIT
Harvard
UIUC
Stanford
UCSB
Okay:
Cornell
Penn State
Maryland
What other schools should I consider for midtier/safety choices?
