<p>Just interested in some peoples' opinions on this topic. What university has a good all-around college experience? (good at most sports, great education in most departments, good weather, a lot to do on campus, good recruiters in the area, low crime, nice location, etc.)</p>
<p>Cornell was the first that came to my mind. I has the widest array of academic programs of any university I have researched, and the town of Ithaca is absolutely gorgeous.</p>
<p>The University of Texas at Austin.</p>
<p>Hands down the best. Don’t even try to argue this one.</p>
<p>Texas is what I woulda guessed.</p>
<p>“What starts here changes the world.” UT Austin ftw hands down. lol</p>
<p>I know a guy who told me he strongly regretted not going to Cornell just because of how beautiful it is.</p>
<p>Duke and Stanford, I would imagine.</p>
<p>It’s MIT ofc!</p>
<p>Definitely UCLA</p>
<p>Stanford, Texas, and Vanderbilt are my picks. UNC and UVA also.</p>
<p>Honorable mention: USC and Duke (surrounding area sucks at both though)</p>
<p>I’d have to say it’s close between Stanford and UT Austin. UT has better sports but Stanford is Stanford. Michigan possibly but the weather is bad.</p>
<p>Though Vanderbilt has awesome sports and academics, Nashville isn’t necessarily considered “safe.” So I couldn’t include them. Stanford? I know they’re good at baseball, but…</p>
<p>My picks: Michigan (I heard the warm months aren’t too bad), UNC, UT-Austin, IU-Bloomington and Ohio State</p>
<p>Honorable mentions: Georgetown (the area around Georgetown is safe, D.C. isn’t), USC, UCLA (again, safety factors for both schools, outside of the surrounding areas)</p>
<p>Stanford should have a pretty solid football team this year. Their women’s hoops team is consistently good.</p>
<p>As long as you aren’t a little ***** about weather, Michigan hands down</p>
<p>I would only want to go to a university in a city with a lot of crime. I can’t stand it when things are too peaceful.</p>
<p>^Are you Mexican?</p>
<p>If you’re looking for good weather, good sports, and hot people, you can’t beat University of Hawaii Manoa.</p>

<p>LOL, what is this? XD There are some truly awful areas of DC, but most of it is safe. You’re obviously not from here. If you want danger, visit Baltimore.</p>
<p>The area around Vandy is safe and Nashville is fine. </p>
<p>Stanford’s football team only lost one game this year, babytitain. Cold winter weather take schools like IU, Michigan, Ohio State off my list.</p>
