<p>Virginia Tech</p>
<p>Furman, Wake Forest, Stanford</p>
<p>Stanford reminded me quite a bit of one large taco bell. Did anyone else get that feeling?</p>
<p>I really really didn't like the Rochester campus that much...
Wesleyan's really pretty too, esp after the constructions gonna get done.
Colgate's nice too.
Lafayette's layout is really cool.</p>
<p>From a guy who's seen 324 of them, Colgate.</p>
<p>I honestly wasn't THAT impressed with colgate, yeah it's nice, but what ticked me off was that during the info session that's all the person could talk about. </p>
<p>I DIDN'T CARE HOW PRETTY THE CAMPUS WAS! I want to go to college to get an education, not to stare at buildings...</p>
<p>Penn!! :)...</p>
<p>Cornell has a nice campus. Vassar too.</p>
<p>Dude....Swarthmore!!! It's an arboretum! Come see it right now. It is GORGEOUS!!!</p>
<p>Duke, Stanford, Princeton, West Point, Dartmouth.</p>
<p>PosterX, Indiana's campus is indeed prettier than Michigan's...because Indiana's campus is one of the 10 most beautiful campuses in the US.</p>
<p>My personal favorite so far is Cambridge in the UK. Nothing comes close.</p>
<p>In the US:</p>
<p>Cornell University
Indiana University
Princeton University
University of Virginia
Yale University</p>
<p>Duke & Pepperdine????</p>
<p>Alexandre's right. Nothing on earth compares to Cambridge. Michigan is nice if you haven't seen many other colleges. The lack of a coherent architectural scheme hurts it. It looks like it was planned by a committee, and everybody on it got his turn to pick a style for a building. It's still a magical place for a lot of reasons (the town, the seriousness of the academics, the sports, etc.)--it's just that beauty isn't one of them...especially in the winter when the trees are leafless, and all you're left with is the the architecture.</p>
<p>Tourguide, I have been to over 100 campuses and Michigan is definitely one of most impressive. It is not pretty to be sure, but it has character and some of its buildings are amazing. If I had to list the 25 most beautiful campuses, Michigan would not make the list. But if I had to list the 25 most impressive campuses, I would say Michigan would make the list. In my opinion, what really hurts Michigan isn't the diverse architecture. In fact, I think the varried architecture makes Michigan very interesting. What hurts Michigan is the uninspired landscaping.</p>
<p>I will add Notre Dame and Swarthmore to the list of gorgeous campuses.</p>
<p>I would agree with Alexandre that Michigan's campus is "impressive" rather than "pretty." (But I didn't think this thread was about "impressive"). Visually it gives me the impression that it is an intellectual and no-nonsense place (no time or money to "waste" on gargoyles or tulips). I doubt if Michigan's campus would even be in the top 200 in the country based on sheer beauty. I live about 20 minutes from the campus and have spent a lot of time there (though was never lucky enough to attend). What impresses me the most is the sheer size of the buildings on the Central Campus. There are individual buildings there that probably have more square footage than many entire small colleges. Also, I like how compact the Central Campus is.</p>
<p>Also, anybody else besides me ever visit Furman?</p>
<p>Campus -- Dartmouth or Vanderbilt
Architecture -- Yale</p>
<p>gotta put in my plug for connecticut college- the campus is a 750 acre arboretum with views of the long island sound!</p>
<p>My personal favorites are: Notre Dame, Princeton, Dartmouth, Colgate, Williams, and Swarthmore.</p>
<p>Duke, Stanford, Holy Cross, W&M, Bowdoin, ND, UChicago.</p>
<p>Holy Cross is nice, but its in what seemed like a VERY sketchy area of Worcester.</p>
