Residential college system

College Search & Selection
1

<p>Hello, I'm a junior currently engaged in my college search. I used to think that I prefered liberal art schools with small, (less than 2000) populations. I now think that some parts of the liberal art school experience are not for me. I still want to go to a college with a strong sense of community that is supposed to be nurtured in smaller, close-knit colleges. I've heard of some universities' (Rice and Yale) residential college programs, which similarly foster a sense of community.
Can anyone tell me some other universities known for their residential colleges?</p>

<p>Michigan has one of the longest running residential colleges in the U.S. It is called “The Residential College.”</p>

<p>Thank you, but I was thinking more about universities that are split into different colleges, not one special residential college distinguished from everyone else.
Unless I’m mistaken, Michigan’s residential college is the latter.</p>

<p>I guess I’m thinking of a residential college system.</p>

<p>Actually, I guess this Wikipedia page answers my question.
