[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]University of Richmond holds appeal in a lot of ways - beautiful campus, small but not "NESCAC small," strong merit aid, proximity to a decent sized city, mild climate, strong athletic programs (Division 1) and Greek life (which does still appeal to some people).  Frankly, it is really more of a small university than a liberal arts college. It has grad programs and a law school. When they started in the rankings many years ago, it was under the category of regional universities. If they were classified under national universities they'd be nowhere close to becoming elite.  For a school ranked as high as they are on this list, they don't rank terribly well for best undergraduate teaching (#41) - many of schools OP listed score much higher.  [/quote]

U of Richmond has a beautiful campus and a large endowment on a per capita basis.  Despite this, it has not historically been viewed as being on the same academic level as schools like Washington & Lee and Davidson.  [/quote]
