<p>Hi everyone. Well, I'm really starting to look into colleges, and I have been to a few campuses so far (for camps, sporting events, etc.). However, I have noticed that many of the prestigious universities, such as Georgetown, Princeton, Harvard, etc. all have a bricky and Hagwarts like look to them. On the other hand, schools like Penn State and UVA have a more sunny and open and grassy feeling to them. Like at Penn State, there were sporting fields on almost every block. I was wondering if any of the top tier schools shared this appearance. I am not really the type of student that likes the brick scene at Georgetown, etc. Does anyone know of any top tier schools that have a similar resemblance to Penn State and UVA? Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Try either the College life forum or Parents forum…</p>
<p>And how about the University of <strong><a href=“State%20you%20live%20in”>u</a></strong> or <strong><a href=“State%20you%20live%20in”>u</a></strong> State University?</p>
<p>^ Seconded.</p>
<p>This is high school life.</p>
<p>Those buildings like ‘Hogwarts’ that you see are all Gothic Architecture. They were most likely built in the medieval periods, explaining their look.</p>
<p>Like you, I like the more modern type society.</p>
<p>Some Modern colleges are as follows</p>
<p>University of Pennsylvania (has some gothic-type architecture)</p>
<p>Johns Hopkins</p>
<p>Columbia University</p>
<p>Cornell University </p>
<p>MIT is pretty modern depending on what your version of modern is. It has interesting and very peculiar structures to be honest. It’s located in a pretty modern society and setting to say the least.</p>
<p>NYU…lol (need i say more)</p>
<p>Harvey Mudd</p>
<p>I can’t remember all of them as i’ve finished applying to all my colleges but i’m sure alot of other people will be able to provide info.</p>
<p>Does anyone have any thoughts on Stanford???</p>
<p>Yale has Lipstick (Ascending). Very modern piece of artwork.</p>
<p>Vanderbilt.</p>
