<ol>
<li>UVA</li>
<li>James Madison University</li>
</ol>

<p>W&L is great, especially when considering the "whole package:" the campus, the town, and the surrounding countryside.</p>

<p>1putt59/Washington</a> and Lee University - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting</p>

<ol>
<li>Furman</li>
<li>Sewanee:The University of the South</li>
<li>University of Richmond</li>
<li>Rhodes</li>
</ol>

<ol>
<li>Notre Dame</li>
<li>Naval Academy</li>
<li>West Point</li>
<li>Cornell</li>
</ol>

<p>Though Dayton had a pretty nice campus too.</p>

<p>University of Miami
Georgia Tech
University of Pennsylvania</p>

<p>Of those I have visited:
1. Grinnell
2. Drake (though I came in fall, so it wasn't too good looking..)
3. U of Iowa ... didn't really feel like a campus</p>

<p>Stanford, Wellesley
beutiful, gorgeous campuses</p>

<p>For where I have visited/drove through:
1. Notre Dame
2. University of Minnesota-Twin Cities
3. University of Wisconsin-Madison
4. Marquette
5. Lawrence</p>

<p>Vanderbilt has an awesome campus!</p>

<p>My favorites, in no particular order:
University of Virginia
Notre Dame
Duke
Wake Forest
Yale
Penn
University of Chicago
Miami (Oxford, Ohio)</p>

<p>1) UCLA
2) Georgetown
3) Florida State University
4) University of Florida
5) Harvard</p>

<p>unc chapel hill shouldmt be on this list. Their freshman dorms are very unappealing.</p>

<p>My favorites.
1) USC- It's a freaking park and is very manicured. I love the fountains and the coziness. I like a small campus.
2) USNA- I had the pleasure of touring the campus last summer and it is beautiful.<br>
3) Santa Clara- Another gorgeous California style campus.
4) Pepperdine- Honestly, I just love the view. Can't beat an ocean view.
5) Indiana University- Bloomington- I visited for a wedding in May, and it was just gorgeous. I loved the architecture, very different than what I was used to in Cali.</p>

<p>Out of all the college campuses that I've seen (not necessarily looking into):</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Covenant College- Beautiful campus on Lookout Mountain, Ga... right across the border from Chattanooga, TN.
