Never been to UW-Seattle, I was under the impression that it was in the city though? I'm a fan of UVA.
Have you seen princeton?
I have. It has a beautiful campus but I do not like it as much as I like the above colleges. Personal opinion
Other notables: - Claremont Colleges - Sewanee
(never Cornell)
Princeton Harvard Cornell Dartmouth Pepperdine Chicago
Yale has really pretty buildings but New Haven just ruins it.
Pepperdine. Just fantastic.
I'll echo Stanford and Emory, and add Rice.
Miami, UCSD, and UCSB; ok campuses in great locations.
A lot of the Ivy campuses are top notch, but are covered in snow half the school year...knocks them out of the first tier.
Elon University
talk some shit for this but Quinnipiac University has expertly manicured lawns and is in the middle of a state forest park. im pretty sure half the tuition goes to landscaping lol but obv not beaches/cliffs like epperdine in malibu is
lol i agree. i was there yesterday for a career fair and there was a small hoard of workers swapping out mums like clockwork. also, the females are expertly manicured.
personally, i think salve regina has a very unique and "nice" campus. and the Gothic architecture at Yale is nice too.
I agree with you. Quinnipiac U has one of the best campuses during Fall time. Campus is surrounded by mountains. Salve Regina in RI is awesome. Right by the beach. Yale has one of the best night life for college students.
pepperdine hands down.....are academics good there?
They are ok. Probably a step down from the UC SB and UCI; I'd put them on par with UC Riverside and Merced, if comparing to CA schools. I would guess they have a tighter alum network, being a mid sized private.
However, everyone I have met from there cannot say enough good things about their college experience. Not a big surprise.
for those of you that have not seen UW-seattle

Cambridge Oxford Princeton Stanford Queen's University: http://bit.ly/sw4ayg
Dartmouth (location is awesome for outdoors / winter sports) Harvard Yale Princeton Hopkins Stanford Duke
Hopkins, what have you been smoking haha?
edit: nevermind, just saw that you GO to Hopkins
Hey, to be fair it's not bad at all.
See: http://www.cmmichael.com/blog/2006/11/06/johns-hopkins-homewood-campus-…
Loyola-Marymount is great to, but only because of location.
Duke looks like a cement prison.
Where are there cement buildings on West? Do you mean Fuqua?
/Rutgers - Camden
Chicago's campus is not nice enough to be on the list of the nicest campuses.
When I went there for college recruiting all the grass on the lawn outside of the building in which they held the info session was overgrown, their fountains are in disrepair and depressing to behold, and there was a homeless person's shopping cart full of crushed soda cans in the middle of one of their quads.
where's the non-target love?
Fordham's campus is very impressive. outside the security gates, not so much.
Agreed.
Agree here. Award winning landscaping to crap on QU
http://www.fordham.edu/campus_resources/enewsroom/inside_fordham/inside…
pepperdine sits on a cliff overlooking malibu...if we are going off of purely location and campus there is no contest
I'd say Notre dame is the unmatched college campus. It's in the middle of nowhere the lawns are immaculate and every building except the dorms is epic. If only the weather was bearable....
Michigan is really nice
Washu is gorgeous
Notre dame is very nice as well
Washington University in St Louis and Princeton in the U.S.
Internationally though, no university campus is as gorgeous as Oxford's.
waat? washu campus is shit
Have you been to the campus? It's fairly small but it's visually gorgeous for the most part. And the new south 40 (new freshman dorm area) is fucking amazing.
University of San Diego--pretty much a country club
Duke Pepperdine Stanford Cornell (but the cold kills it)
Ole Miss - not to mention there are pretty things to look at aside from the landscaping/buildings - you ivy guys know what I'm talking about ehhh??
sluts
Nooo you're thinking of NYC.
Top campuses have to be Pepperdine and Oxford...they're incredible.
Also, a little love for the SEC: LSU's campus is respected too. (at least in the south)
Ouachita Baptist University. No Doubt.
CU Boulder CU Campus Winter Pic
Indiana has extremes: Notre Dame and IU (especially in the fall), then Ball State (white trash hell hole) and Purdue (the most bland campus I've ever seen).
Indiana also has some small LACs with amazing campuses. Depauw University, Wabash College, Hanover College. Used to play sports at these all the time in UG. in the fall those places are amazing.
Tech, I totally agree with you on Boulder. Personally, I think Penn State looks gorgeous, particularly in the fall and winter. Man... so great places to really see the beauty of the campus. Between the buildings and the landscaping, it is just a gorgeous place.
Other campus I happen to like: University of Michigan, CU Boulder, Wake Forest and UVA all come to mind.
We're just getting our first snow here in Boulder, expecting up to 15 inches by the end of tomorrow! God damn I love Colorado
Please remind me why you care about fountains and the length of the grass???
Go to any school in the south on Saturday in fall... Oxford, MS and Tuscaloosa, AL definitely top the list.
Additionally, a Saturday in Lexington, KY in October is hard to beat at Keeneland (yes, I realize it's not on campus).
The fountains look dingy and have no water. They are cracked. (Or were last time I was at UChicago). Why does this matter? Well, I guess if you think a girl with bags under her eyes and crusted vomit on her lips can still be beautiful, then so can their campus.

Miami OH
Oxford for sure.
I feel that Yale and Duke look very similar actually. But to each his own I guess.
Yale has a very elegant, prestigious, and almost Oxbridge-like look to it.. But, New Haven destroys it.
What does prestige look like anyway? I've always wondered.
Stanford, UCSB, UChicago, Princeton
Texas A&M
I kid, I kid.
cambridge
Sorry, what's a campus?
http://www.thebestcolleges.org/most-beautiful-campuses/
Princeton was the prettiest campus I'd ever seen.
rutgers
Annapolis and Fordham are both beautiful campuses
Any SEC school on gameday trumps nice lawns and fountains any day of the week... Retarded Sluts > A golden dome
Havent been to a gameday at a SEC (although I really want to), but if you go to a gameday at ND its not just "nice lawns and fountains" The campus definitely has a palpable electricity to it. Tough to describe and I'm biased, but just saying nice lawns and fountains does not do it justice.
IU is the only other really pretty campus I have seen, but I have only been to midwest campuses so I am sure I am missing out on a lot
I was at the ND vs. AF game a few weeks ago, its a nice campus but nothing compared to SEC gameday... tailgating is a complete joke and you couldn't pay me enough to fuck the girls there...
I have visited the Cornell campus on about 20 occasions. It is the most beautiful campus that I have ever visited. I taught at Notre Dame College of Business for a couple of years. Did not notice anything spectacular about their campus. I used to go to Chicago almost every weekend just to avoid the boredom. I mean, sure they have the touchdown Jesus and all that, but that is all good for one visit.
University of Georgia. Athens is the best college town in the nation.
How does one rank campus beauty? None of us has been to even 5% of American universities, let alone global universities.
Georgetown is a fun area for sure, but the campus was only "nice" (nothing exceptional). Columbia was pretty nice for a campus in/huddled up against a city. Sure beats Marquette, Butler, U Chicago, etc., lol.
Dartmouth Dartmouth Dartmouth Dartmouth Dartmouth
best campus is wait..wait..... who gives a flying fuck
Well, it seems you do since you took the time to comment...
bazinga!

University of Colorado at Boulder, bam.
MIT
hands down pepperdine, they have an ocean,
http://www.jobsbump.com/wp-content/gallery/default/senior-commissioning…
This isn't a question. Oxford.
southern schools, sluts.
all the above are sick as well, I'd add Boston College.
Ohio State University is the best :P haha, but Harvard is honestly great.
Pepperdine hands down... campus is sick...
Yep, spent an hour or so walking around Pepperdine in January 2010. I've only been to a handful of college campuses in my life but I'd wager that Pepperdine has got to have the most ridiculous campus ever conceived. Christian conservatives kicking ass and taking names!
Pepperdine tops any other campus hands-down in terms of looks. I had a floor to ceiling window overlooking the Pacific Ocean my sophomore year. It was pretty sick. Academics are comparable to UCI and UCSB, although I guarantee you'll do 10 times more work at Pepp.
Ph*ck you. I was Early Action wait listed at Pepperdine.
I wanted to go Pepperdine really bad, the campus location is amazing.
Best urban campus: Columbia
The architecture here is, without a doubt, gorgeous. But the campus is so freaking tiny that it doesn't often feel like a true campus. :(
That, Barnard students, and the annoying hippies one bumps into every other second makes for a pretty annoying campus environment.
These comments have to be taken into context. Which campuses have you actually visited? For example, with the OP's 5 campuses, I've only seen two (Stanford and Cornell). Liked them both, but they aren't at the top of my list.
Better to list what campuses you've actually visited, so we can understand what your rankings mean.
[Deleted! No longer relevant.]
Definitely take U of Washington out of the list.
I love UCSD.
I have been to Columbia and Berkeley, I would pick Berkeley instead, it's doesn't have the newest building, but it's a campus with stories behind.
McGill University is pretty sick too
university of phoenix online campus
.
Oxford and Cambridge. Not even close. And I say this as an American.
Vaaaah Tech!
Princeton, Yale, Duke, BC, UChicago. Got Gothic?
