I would agree with this approach. I can't comment on the actual universities and which ones would be best, but narrow down your options based on the reputation and opportunities of departments and schools within each university rather than the university as a whole. If say you wanted to major in history, and one university had a great reputation because of its business and law schools but its history department is sub-par, that's not going to help you much. Check out the academics in the areas you want to study, what sort of research they're doing, what sort of courses they offer, and how reputable that department is in industries that employ people with that degree.
