OP, is "NY" a typo??

Someone is on a VMI kick today, recommending in here, in the Davidson post, and the one about musical theater programs! Random…

Honors programs at SEC schools. Not mid-size but offer a smaller environment

OP here - sorry - yes, meant NC! And I realize that maybe I should have said bigger than tiny liberal arts as I think technically “medium” means more than 5,000 and she would consider smaller than that. By sporty I meant she wouldn’t be a recruited athlete but wants to play club and intramural sports. Major is undecided.

All you people saying Elon, Vandy, even Emory, it gets fuggin cold in those places! Not New England cold, but those campuses all get snow, and you could need a winter coat at any point between late October and early April. That's like 80% of the school year. A kid who truly hates the cold and wants a mid sized school should be looking at UMiami, SMU, TCU, Rice if they have the stats, and College of Charleston if they need a safety.

University of Tulsa - Urban, but feels like the 'burbs. 4,000 students
University of Arkansas - Fayetteville is a small town. Charming, too.
