A college student started unloading his full basket onto a checkout marked "15 items or less." The Cashier said, "Either you are from MIT and can't read, or from Harvard and can't count!" You need to do more research, especially upon yourself. Match the School to your Interests. Math or Physics would point toward MIT, Law to Harvard (simple examples). Your High School Counselor would be helpful in your search. By the way, if you want to teach at the University level, there are tiers: Someone who got a PhD at Kent State might not be considered for a position at the University of Chicago, Harvard, etc.

Yes, many. But it depends on what you want to study. For business, Bentley college. For Web Design, the New England Institute of Art. To become a Jazz musician, the Berklee School of Music. For Architecture, the Boston Architectural Center. For CAD/Drafting, Wentworth. For Painting, Mass College of Art. There are over a hundred colleges in the Boston Area, happy hunting!

There is a big drop in quality after the list of colleges you have mentioned. The next tier would include colleges like BU, Northeastern, Wheaton, Clark. A little further out is Providence College.

Wheaton is not quite up to par with the ones on your list but is also quite good.
