<p>Just wondering if there are any other gay high schoolers on CC, and if there are, how much is that factoring in to your college decision? Have you found any good, really gay friendly colleges?</p>
<p>it should factor into your college decision according to how important it is to you :).</p>
<p>average SAT score probably generally correlates very well with gay-friendliness, and that information is very easy to find (so basically just aim for getting to get into the best college you can if it is important to you).</p>
<p>LAC’s tend to be more gay friendly</p>
<p>I’m bi…but I’m not completely out yet. I live in Kentucky. I’m pretty sure I can still be hung for witchcraft if I came out. -__-</p>
<p>I’m not gay myself, but I go to a very gay-friendly school. It’s still not quite “liberal-ish” though… yet. I live in a suburban, Republican-oriented town run by rich old white men.</p>
<p>I’m bisexual and only partially out of the closet. I know a lot of gay, bisexual, and lesbian students but it’s difficult to find a girl who’s into me. I’m considered adorable by everyone but not…in THAT way. :</p>
<p>I’m convinced 90% of NYU is gay. Look into there…</p>
<p>^^^ problem is I’m not into urban schools. ATM I really like Emory, Rice, and Cornell, and I’ve heard they’re all very gay friendly.</p>
<p>Urban schools would be the most gay-friendly.</p>
<p>I’m definitely looking for schools that are gay friendly. I visited Georgetown and it seemed really chill, but I’m looking over in California now. What schools in California, besides Berkeley, are gay friendly and have a good amount of gay people that go there?</p>
<p>Not gay, but I was President of the Gay-Straight alliance in our school, which included all LGBT Groups. If you’re looking for LGBT friendly schools, the Bay Area is the best place to look. If you don’t like urban schools, look into schools located in the Northeastern suburbs. Despite Tyler Clementi, as someone who has gay family members going to Rutgers, it is one of the most gay friendly schools.</p>
<p>Adam, Stanford is pretty great. UCLA and USC are pretty cool as well.</p>
<p>I currently attend WUSTL and it’s very gay-friendly.</p>
<p>^Really? From what I’ve heard, the area isn’t too gay-friendly, though the college itself is.</p>

Really? I go to school in Kentucky as well, and my school doesn’t really have any problems with LGBT. We actually had a teacher try to sponsor a club for them. Granted, in my opinion, our school has hardly any bullying (and this is a public school).</p>
<p>My problem is that the most gay-friendly colleges (Oberlin, Vassar, NYU) tend to be full of hipsters, and I just can’t handle that for four years…</p>
<p>My problem is that all the schools I want to go to are out of state and expensive! :(</p>
<p>I’m interested in University of Missouri, and apparently they’re one of the most gay-friendly schools in one of the most gay-friendly small towns.</p>
<p>I’m bisexual, but I’m not “out”, and don’t plan on it. I’m known as the conservative one, and it would dent my reputation among the Tory student groups I frequent. I’m in Conservative Future (a kind of English Teenage Republicans with more flat caps and less laissez-faire), so it would look pretty awful for me to declare that I was bisexual.
As such, a school being gay-friendly or not doesn’t really matter to me, though if I found a girl I was willing to drop everything for between now and 2015, I might have to reconsider.</p>
<p>For anyone who’s like me and wants to attend a school in a warmer area in the south, I’ve done some research and two schools that seem to be very gay friendly are Emory and Rice.</p>
