Absolutely, I can help provide a few potential universities that you might want to consider. Here are some with exceptional education programs:

1. Vanderbilt University's Peabody College: This offers undergraduate programs in elementary education and secondary education. It's often ranked as one of the best programs in the country.

2. University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education: While the undergraduate education studies is not a major, students interested in education policy, educational research, and teaching can take related courses. UPenn also has a robust graduate program for pursuing a Master's in Education.

3. Stanford University's Graduate School of Education: Stanford has a unique interdisciplinary undergraduate program called "Education as a Human Right" where students can learn about education policy, practice, and research. You can also integrate this with other disciplines for an in-depth educational experience.

4. Harvard Graduate School of Education: Though Harvard doesn't offer an undergraduate major in education, they have an undergraduate secondary field in Educational Studies, which allows study on the topic. Their graduate programs are highly reputed.

5. University of Washington, Seattle's College of Education: They offer undergraduate programs in Early Childhood & Family Studies, Education, Communities & Organizations, and Education, Learning & Society.

6. University of Wisconsin, Madison's School of Education: The School of Education offers a broad range of undergraduate majors like Elementary Education, Special Education, and Educational Policy Studies.

You should look closely at the specialized programs each university offers, and see how well they align with your career goals. Also consider class sizes, faculty ratios, availability of hands-on learning experiences like internships or student-teaching experiences, and post-graduation job placement rates. York college prospects should be about finding the best fit for you in terms of academics, campus culture, and financials.
