What college should I go to to be a game programmer?

[Darian]

I'm looking for a list of the best colleges for game programming and I mean actual universities, not devry or the art institute. I've done a lot of looking on the web and I haven't really found anything.

Don't go to UAT, formerly called The CAD Institute, The University of Advanced Computer Technology -- it's a diploma mill with gigantic student loans that will make you into a 2nd class citizen with fewer rights than an illegal immigrant gets.

A game programmer is involved with multi-media and programming. Any of the teachers worth a krap at UAT got their masters at the nearby Arizona State University (Party U, they call it). Do research for higher education offering a degree in Multimedia. Some companies such as Pixar give a list of approved institutions they will consider graduates as potential candidates.
