Applying to College

<p>Wellesley. But it really depends on how you define "nice". Quaint with a lot of trees? Gothic in the middle of a city? Beach-club feeling? "Collegiate" atmosphere?</p>

<p>Rural: Drew University [Madison, NJ]</p>

<p>Urban: Northeastern [yeah, it's a homer pick, but it IS the nicest urban campus in the country]</p>

<p>Suburban: Pepperdine</p>

<p>Overall: Pepperdine</p>

23

<p>Of those I've visited, my favorites are Princeton and Chicago.</p>

24

<p>Princeton's campus is absolutely amazing. I've heard AMAZING things about Stanford as well.</p>

25

<p>Drew isn't really rural... it's around 30 minutes to NYC and walkable to downtown madison.. :) just putting that out there...</p>

26

<p>i liked bryn mawr too!</p>

27

<p>O9XOXO: Yeah it is...When I said "rural" I just mean to say that it's not really part of the town of madison, and it's kind of off on its own in the forest...But you are right, Madison, NJ is not exactly rural.</p>

28

<p>Dartmouth! It is the perfect NE campus.</p>

29

<p>imagine walking through this to get to your classes everyday...</p>

<p>Wellesley......</p>

31

<p>columbia, own little space in the middle of NYC. amazing, inside it's cozy and green, and really good looking, step outside and you're in the middle of NYC. basically, shopping :)</p>

<p>princeton - great too!</p>

32

<p>Few people have actually heard of this college let alone see it, but College of the Atlantic in Bar Harbor ME has a fantastic campus, its not really done in the "grand" sense that Columbia and Princeton seem to go for, but it's right on the rocky coasts of maine with gorgeous views and a very modern/nature style campus, its really breathtaking</p>

33

<p>I really like Columbia too. Penn also has a pretty nice green, leafy campus in its own space inside Philly.</p>

34

<p>west point duke princeton yale</p>

35

<p>Naval Academy/William & Mary/Rice/Claremont colleges/Amherst/Davidson/Stanford. All have very distinctive "feel". MAke sure it matches what makes you happy. Beauty is in eye of beholder.</p>

36

<p>Swarthmore-National Arboretum. Graduation held in a spectacular, lush outdoor amphitheater.
Also Vassar is absolutely beautiful.</p>

37

<p>Williams ....</p>

38

<p>Caltech's campus is amazing, the architecture, the flowers, the sun :-).</p>
