Not sure if "Recording Arts" is close enough, but if it is...check out Full Sail.
An awesome place.

The University of Miami has probably the best program in the country, as well as one of the few Masters of Sound Engineering programs in the country. You're pretty much set with a job at a major studio or label out of there.
Then again, it's the real deal -you have to audition just like any other music student, and it's very competitive to get in.
I think there's tons of 2 year programs in basic recording studio techniques, as well as a number of 4 year programs sprouting up around the country too. But for the most part, those are a waste of money sadly. At the end of the day, you're still talking about the music industry, and so a degree matters less than it would in most other industries. I think the UMiami program is one of the few with enough clought to actually get you a job.
A great 4 year program for Acoustics/Production & Design/Installed Sound/Live Sound. I'm a music business student at Columbia thats taking a lot of classes in that dept. Check it out!

There is Berklee in Boston but the only down side of that is that your parents have to own an oil company in order to pay for that school.
jk
UMA in Maine has a great music program from studio to stage and all kinds of stuff in between. it's like 7 to 10 thousand a year (something like that)
the only down part about UMA (some of you consider...) is that it's in Maine

as soon as i can, i'm packing my bags and heading down to orlando and enrolling into the full sail audio engineering program
since i've already got a good start by going to one of the best production schools in canada, i figured i'd go for one of the best audio engineering schools in the world
also, not to be nitpicky, but just to clear things up in regards to the title and hopefully educate people who weren't sure or didn't know
sound engineers deal with music after it leaves the speaker, like setting up a club system and dealing with how sound travels
audio engineers deal with audio before it leaves the speaker
audio is sound before it travels through a speaker
