There don't seem to be any good rankings that I have found. There are just "trends"
CA and NY seem to be more competitive.
More popular cities are obviously more competitive.
University programs are usually more competitive than community programs.
Big name schools are more competitive.
Programs with notoriously chill programs are sometimes more competitive.

Of the ones you listed, Colorado would probably be the most competitive due to just location if nothing else.

That's all I got.

If you want to rate programs on the black and white perspective of competitiveness, let me give you the easy method.

Simply call them up, ask them how many people applied last year, and how many people got in.

colorado would be at the top of that list in terms of competitiveness I would think. UMASS is a pretty good program as well. Don't know anything about the others.
