<p>What are some older schools that have a lot of gothic architecture? I'm aware of Yale and Princeton, but I need some more match/safety schools... </p>

<p>I know it sounds like a dumb thing to judge a school by, but the photos of Yale and Princeton are just so amazing... Any other schools that look that beautiful?</p>

<p>Bump...</p>

<p>Also Georgian architecture is somewhat of a turn off to me...</p>

<p>I agree I love gothic architecture...I have yet to find any, though I believe I read clark univeristy does? but I'm not sure, I read so many colleges and they start to blend together....</p>

<p>Duke's West Campus is Gothic. The campus in its entirety is gorgeous.</p>

5

<p>Sewanee (University of the South) - definitely gothic architecture, quite gorgeous.</p>

6

<p>Yes, Duke is Gothic, influenced heavily by Princeton actually, but I would hardly call it a safety, and while its West is Gothic, its East is Georgian (but it's also quite pretty)</p>

<p>5 kids from my school got into duke this year... I'd consider myself at least on level with them... </p>

<p>Safety, definatley not... more doable then HYP? I think so.</p>

8

<p>Take a look at U of Chicago. They pride themselves on their gargoyles.</p>

9

<p>University of Washington; University of Richmond (similar to Duke but less so); definitely U Chicago, although they've built some new, modern buildings that I didn't really like</p>

10

<p>Kenyon has a lot, including the earliest collegiate gothic building in America (Old Kenyon hall)... check it out.</p>

<p>Fordham has a lot of Gothic Architecture. It is a very old campus and in the heart of NY. The school is also haunted, so I heard. </p>

<p>Here are some images:</p>
