Macalester may be of interest to you. Rhodes College in Memphis.

NYU

Clark University in Massachusetts?

Case Western

University of Chicago

Emery, Tufts, Johns Hopkins (except lacrosse), Colorado College (except men’s hockey and women’s soccer)…there are many many D3 schools that are urban.

MIT, CMU

Intended major? School size? Current grades/test scores?

URochester, Scranton, Catholic U, Trinity (CT), Wesleyan

Do you really consider Middletown, CT with its population of 46k “urban”?

Brandeis and Wash U can be added to the UAA schools recommended above.

@marvin100 lol, yes, after I wrote that I realized it really didn’t belong in the urban category but was just lazy I guess and didn’t go back and delete it. Honestly, as someone who lives in the area, I’m surprised the population is that high!

Trinity (CT).

Lewis and Clark College–Portland
Goucher College–Baltimore
Mills College–Oakland, CA

@taverngirl is not the only one who has ever applied that label to Middletown. IMHO, this may be a case where the word, “urban” is often a euphemism for significant minority (particularly African-American) presence which, even though it is not particularly high overall (Middletown is about 75% white), is concentrated where it would be most visible, its business district.

I found this in well under one minute on Wikipedia:
Category:ListsofuniversitiesandcollegesintheUnitedStatesbycity

It’s kind of an odd list (Tulsa and Lubbock, for example, or Jacksonville but not Miami, Tampa, or Orlando, nothing in Ohio, only San Francisco from CA, etc) but it’s a decent jumping off point.

@stpauldad You should edit that Wikipedia page and fix it up using suggestions from this thread :smiley:
