So, like Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana, Penn State, Syracuse, Boulder, Ohio, UCLA? Like those?

I thought that same. I visited W&M with one of my son's as he was interested in it. It's a big nerd school IMO

Can't beleive no one has mentioned JMU

Madison was not on the list but there was an asterisk which mentioned that Wisconsin could not be included in the poll because it was considered “professional” and could not be ranked among the amateurs…based on my son’s recent this may still be true.

I have heard this story about numerous schools, including Penn State and UVA. This all may be apocryphal.

Yeaahhh they said this all the time at/about WVU when I was in school there, and well before, and probably after. Believable as it may be (and it is), I think this "unfair to include professionals in a list of amateurs" claim to fame is urban legend material.

That said...I visited plenty of other schools during college and shortly thereafter. I've never made it to Baton Rouge or Madison, but I'd bet LSU and UW-M are probably close. ASU, yes, pretty wild. FSU, Penn State, and Rutgers, viable enough contenders. I'd give Syracuse a nod. VT, UVA, JMU, Georgetown, Ivies, UChicago, some of these other mentions...laughable. WVU's status as a party school isn't really an attribute I care to promote, but it has a reputation for a reason. Morgantown Mayhem is REAL.

Lol to those saying UMiami isn’t a party school. It’s next level partying. See yachts, above. Partying off-campus with very, very rich non-students. To the extent I was worried about our kid applying.
