Hello Job,

CMU http://www.csd.cs.cmu.edu/research/areas/principleprogr/,
 UPenn  http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~plclub/,
Harvard,
TTI-Chiago /UChicago

all have excellent faculty who do work related to typed functional
programming languages.

Other places worth at least checking out are:
Northeastern university in boston - they have scheme heavy hitters like olin
shivers and matthias felleisen, and their PLT faculty are world class
U Utah -  http://matt.might.net/ (he's got some really cool control flow
analysis stuff)
Yale has a blend of systems verification work and DSL related work by the
two pl faculty
Rice in texas - walid taha and maybe some others

UW seattle has has some PL folks at points, though i'm not sure which active
people are currently there,
PSU http://www.cs.pdx.edu/research/research has some folks who aren't very
active i think
UCSD has at least one  plt dude http://cseweb.ucsd.edu/users/lerner/
the may be some other places that i'm over looking, like cornell, though i
don't think there are currently any *functional* pl theory folks there
currently, eg UCLA.

I think that covers the bulk of strong PL faculty in the US who do
functionalish things who are at schools which have CS phd programs


also bear in mind when applying to schools that many departments are
currently admitting fewer students than they've typically in the past due to
funding constraints, so subject to whatever budget constraints you have (or
none if you can get a fee waiver), apply to as many programs that you are
genuinely interested in going to as is possible, even relatively small
programs can have only 8 admitted student slots across all areas of CS and
200+ applicants!

Best
