Medium-Sized schools that have a large gay population?

<p>I know there are countless threads on LGBT-friendly schools, etc. </p>

<p>But I was wondering if anyone knows of schools that are somewhat affordable or offer some type of scholarships that also have a student body of 6,000+.</p>

<p>There are many small LAC's listed as gay-friendly, but the majority have too small of a population and/or are pretty expensive. So was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions - thank you!</p>

<p>To get more people to help you, you may want to first read <a href=“Before you ask which colleges to apply to, please consider - College Search & Selection - College Confidential Forums”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/1621234-before-you-ask-which-colleges-to-apply-to-please-consider-p1.html&lt;/a&gt; , give details suggested therein, and specify what the upper limit of “medium-sized” is (you only gave a lower limit of 6,000).</p>

<p>What state do you live in?</p>

<p>Sorry -
2080 SAT, Didn’t take ACT yet, top 5% of class, i live in the Northeast, want a college where the majority of the students dorm and don’t commute, and I am willing to go to possibly “lower-tier” schools for scholarships, etc.
I am stuck between Med School - or Business (very different - I know)</p>

<p>Any suggestions would help - thank you!</p>

<p>Is Northeast a state now? Your in-state schools will generally be more affordable. That’s why @intparent‌ asked the question. There may be some mid-tier schools that have a fairly large gay population.</p>

<p>Oh I’m sorry - New York!</p>

<p>Geneseo? Purchase? (for in-state options)
NYU is an obvious answer, too.</p>

<p>Run the Net Price Calculators - net price is often different from sticker price, especially at LACs where you’d qualify for money.</p>

<p>lol, NYU has LGBT concentration? Purchase, maybe.</p>

<p>SUNY New Paltz would be worth checking into.</p>

<p>Another vote for SUNY NP. Affordable and diverse with a nice town and supportive environment.</p>

<p>artloverplus: yes, NYU has a strong LGBT segment (especially gay guys). :)</p>

<p>Do LGB stereotypes by major (e.g. CS, drama) have any basis in reality?</p>

<p>If they do, would schools with a lot of students in such majors (e.g. CMU) also be candidates for this thread?</p>

<p>I hadn’t heard about CS, but I believe it is true of music, art and design.</p>
