1. A phenomenal university located alongside Michigan's capital city of Lansing, this school is for the well-rounded student who is looking for a fantastic education, great employment opportunities, and an active and friendly student body--basically the overall "student experience" plus a kick-ass campus. They also have well-recognized and nationally ranked graduate programs in research, law, and all 3--yes 3--of their medical schools. Don't believe it? Here:
"A dynamic and diverse academic community, MSU offers all the vibrancy and excitement you'd expect from one of the most comprehensive campuses in the United States. With an extensive array of high-quality undergraduate, graduate, and preprofessional programs and resources, there's a perfect academic fit for everyone. Outside the classroom, students make connections and feel at home through a powerful network of close-knit communities and inclusive initiatives--including more than 500 student organizations and a range of support services. Undergraduates, as well as graduate students, work side by side with accomplished faculty on research and creative projects and benefit from interacting with other outstanding students from a variety of backgrounds. In addition to the largest single-campus residence hall system in the nation, MSU offers an active Greek community and living-learning communities that bring together students with similar majors and interests to live and attend classes. MSU students benefit from being part of a proud Spartan tradition and myriad on-campus activities and events--including Big Ten athletics and acclaimed performances and productions--as well as life-changing opportunities for study abroad, service learning, and community engagement."

I got into U of M and was offered a scholarship when I applied for their undergrad program. I also got into U of M when I was applying for medical school. But since I at no point wanted to become an asshole, I still chose Michigan State University. So every U of M prick who thinks MSU students were just too stupid to get into U of M, or wishes they went to U of M, think again. We all just didn't want to become petty bitches and associate with any of you.

mid sized university located in Greeley, Colorado not too far from Denver. Filled with the future teachers, nurses, actors, and musicians of Colorado and the US.
In comparison w/ CSU and CU which tend to attract many many out of staters from all over the country (many who come for the mountains) UNC is primarily populated by young women from Denver's many suburbs (many prospective elementary teachers). Women outnumber men by far.
Though downtown Greeley is very disconnected from UNC and the college culture, there are plenty of college hangouts along 16th street (Maggie's java joint, Roma's etc.)
UNC is surrounded by huge houses, many of them 10 bedrooms which the upperclassmen tend to populate.
UNC is a blast and no place I'd rather be.

UNC is incredible. The University of Northern Colorado is quite simply everything I hoped it would be and more.

THE fucking sickest place ever, for all you motherfuckers that hate on it, shut the fuck up and go to the town. If you want to go to a town and not have to worry about anything and just chill out, look at the hottest girls in the country and smoke weed, THAN GO HERE

A university where only the most awesome hippies in the country go. The congregate in Bellingham, WA, just south of the US-Canadian border. For fun, most WWU students smoke a lot of marijuana.
WWU Student 1: What do you want to do this weekend at Western Washington University?
WWU Student 2: Smoke some weed?

College in Newport, RI renowned as the home of the richest, preppiest kids in New England whose siblings went to Brown, Cornell, Harvard and the like, but who couldn't get in themselves. Students literally live in mansions, as Jazz Age private palaces have been converted into dorms. Hunt/Reefe freshman dorm is yards away from the Vanderbilt's "The Breakers" mansion.
Actually, a good percentage of the student population here DID have their choice of better schools like Northestern, Rutgers or Amherst, but chose SRU for the location and atmosphere. I know some students who turned down Cornell, Princeton, Dartmouth, and/or Harvard for Salve.
Well-known nursing program - it's not uncommon to shake shit-faced people awake after they've passed out at a party and have them start reciting very technical terms for the human anatomy.
Everybody goes clubbing in Providence on weekends.
Catholic, no sororities or frats, AND it's a dry campus. Merely necessitates new drinking games involving avoiding campus security.

Back @ Salve Regina University
-"That was a fine bunch of girls we met at that Rogers Williams party on Thursday"
-"Duuuuuuuude, I can't remember that at all!!!"
-"Yeah, they all went to Salve, bro! We went to Via Via afterwards and got in a fight with that guy outside, remember?"
-"Naw, man...still nothing. Maybe I'll remember next weekend. Just tell me if I hooked up with any of 'em if you seem 'em around O'Hare"

The most amazing party school to exist in arizona, and ranked 6 amongst the top 10 party schools of 2010 according to Playboy. The University of Arizona did not make the list, enough said about them. Thursday-Sunday = pool parties, ladies, studs, alcohol, more of that alcohol, some more, then a few more chugs. Monday-Wednesday recovering from your weekend as well as the possibility of attending a few classes. Long story short ASU is the shit.
Arizona State University is not located near Tucson. You should be clear of all STD's, Boredom, and T-locs. Enjoy your stay and "sorry for partying".

Watch out on game days...it can get a little out of hand-kind of like all the other days of the week
Sunday is the 1 day to relax
Oh yeah, there is school there too
