Least Pretentious Top Universities?

<p>So here are the places that I know I’m applying to
University of Oregon
University of Washington
University of Texas
University of Wisconsin</p>

<p>University of Colorado sounds really good. It actually sounds like Oregon, but it’s even closer to the mountains. What would be the advantage of going to Colorado over Oregon?</p>

<p>I’m not ruling out University of Georgia at all - I realize that it’s a good school with great sports teams. I have no interest University of Florida. That school has a mediocre reputation in California. People from my high school apply to out of state public schools all over the country (Washington, Texas, Oregon, Michigan, Illinois, Arizona, Georgia Tech, Clemson). Florida is known as the ASU of the East Coast. Great sports teams and really hot girls, but not much as far as academics go. I don’t think that’s really the case with the school, just how it’s perceived here.</p>

<p>I’ve been to Boston many times. It’s a great city, but I’m not a fan of the people. Nice to place to visit - would never want to live there. Boston University does not have competitive sports teams, thus I wouldn’t be interested anyways.</p>
