College of William and Mary
A top-notch, East Coast, very old public university (for America), W&M can be seen as a smaller, less famous version of the prestigious University of Virginia. As the second oldest university in the country, W&M educated many of the leading figures in America’s early history, including three Presidents more..
Duke University
If you are a basketball fanatic, a lover of the South, longing to join a fraternity, dying for some warm weather or merely in search of a top tier US education that avoids the East Coast stereotypes, then Duke is well worth your consideration. Duke offers a highly social campus set a mere fifteen minutes more..
Emory University
Talk to folks at Emory for more than a few minutes, and you’ll find a recurring theme in everything they say. Emory is a place of variety. No two students have the same experience here. What is remarkable is that, while providing a huge range of educational experiences that each individual can more..
Florida State University
The FSU experience may not be typically Floridian - you won’t find Cuban cafe con leche or stunning beaches here in the famous Panhandle (unless you drive an hour or so to the snow white sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico) – but it is quintessentially American, complete with varsity sports, fraternities more..
Georgia Institute of Technology
The MIT of the South, The Georgia Institute of Technology is one of the most formidable powerhouses of scientific research available to undergraduates who really want to push themselves. The experience will not be easy and for some not even enjoyable, but it will let you be part of the one of the most more..
Rice University
Rice has traditionally attracted a slightly off-beat crowd from a wide range of backgrounds, most of whom are looking for a top-notch education without the elitism and other drawbacks of the big East Coasters, but also without the out-and-out hippies of the really small liberal arts schools more..
Savannah College of Art and Design
SCAD is simply one of the best art and design colleges in the whole of the U.S.A. Just ask its students. To study here gives you great opportunities regardless of what major you choose, from graphic designers working with Amazon and Google to fashion majors working with Coach and Gucci. Going to SCAD more..
Sewanee: The University of the South
Perched resplendently atop a mountain in rural Tennessee, the University of the South (universally called "Sewanee") offers an experience quite unlike any other. With a huge campus (called “the Domain”) but a tiny student body, the college may be hard to reach (buses and trains don’t go near more..
Tulane University
Tulane has everything going for it – excellent academics, fun students and awesome social life, all set on a beautiful campus in one of the coolest towns in the country. Interested? You should be. Tulane is considered a Southern Ivy, complete with top-fifty rankings and nation-wide recognition more..
University of Florida
The University of Florida may look from the outside like another bog standard massive state school, but it doesn't take long talking to students before you realise that their incredible enthusiasm and pride radiates from this place being something very special. Despite nasty budget cuts following the more..
University of Georgia
As classic an experience as they come, UGA is the quintessential small-town, big-state-school US college. While competent academically, the focus here is much more on the glory of the Bulldogs sports teams, the honour of one’s fraternity or sorority, and the size of the parties one is able to throw more..
University of Miami
The East Coast alternative to Orange County, UM is for those who like some sun and games with their education, but who for whatever reason didn’t make it into UCLA. One of the top universities in the region, the academics are great here and getting better. With a student:teacher ratio of 11:1 the work more..
University of North Carolina
Just talk to the students here for a few minutes; it'll be immediately apparent that they're not only intelligent, sophisticated and incredibly charming, but they also exude a heart-warming contentment and happiness that comes straight from their experience at school. “I only wish it were more than more..
University of South Florida
To be 100% honest, USF’s campus is beautiful. During orientation, this reviewer was, understandably, in a group of a lot of Americans. They were mesmerized when they were being shown around the campus and told how old the buildings were. “That one is 40 years old! This one is 50!!” more..
University of Texas
Like the state it represents, the University of Texas does nothing by halves. The second biggest college in the country, with a huge, ultra-liberal campus in a huge, ultra-conservative state, this public Ivy is extraordinarily capable in its academics, insanely ambitious with its party life, massively more..

University of Virginia (UVA)
The university – known to one and all as UVA (or simply "Virginia") – has possibly the most beautiful campus in the States, is situated in a quintessential Southern college town, and offers an education that, despite its public status, is nationally acclaimed. This is a school for those of you looking more..
Vanderbilt University
Situated a mere five minutes from Nashville, the great country music hot spot, Vanderbilt is home to Southern belles and gents in their present form. In fact, if Scarlett O'Hara or Rhett Butler were searching for their ideal campus right now, the odds are that good ole Vandy would fit the bill nicely more..

Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virgina Tech)
The atmosphere at Virginia Tech is more like your typical large state school rather than a tech; Greek life and football dominate the campus life, and students are keen on making space in their hard-working schedules for lots of fun. Blacksburg, VTech's tiny college town, may be in the middle of nowhere more..
