No, it’s not. It looks like an upscale residential neighborhood, with one giant mansion at its center. Little about it suggests it’s an institution of higher learning.

Agree, I don’t think it compares to the beauty of campuses like W&M, Princeton, West Point or Cornell in any way.

Have either of you been to Salve Regina? It is NOT in "an upscale residential neighborhood with one giant mansion at its center." In fact it is one of many giant mansions along the cliff walk in Newport, RI. Have you ever heard of the Newport mansions? Educate yourself before you start spewing misinformation.

Notre Dame

Those buildings sure are ugly. Take the water view out and it is a piece of crap campus.

Northwestern. I mean, can ya believe it?

Vassar. Especially in spring.

University of Mary Washington. A little jewel.

So true. All three are more prestigious and much prettier than University of Maryland

Have you been to any private colleges???

I thought UVA was so average and Charlottesville seemed depressing. I went to school in Boston where the entire city is like a giant college town.

Stanford is beautiful. I thought USC was really pretty.

No. 1 - UVA. https://www.bestcollegereviews.org/features/most-beautiful-college-campuses/#:~:text=University%20of%20Virginia%20%E2%80%93%20Charlottesville%2C%20Virginia,-The%20University%20of&text=Jefferson's%20original%20vision%20still%20makes,inspiration%20from%20Rome's%20celebrated%20Pantheon.

Me too! Except I had a really cool dorm room on the top of one of the old West Campus dorms.

I really wonder if these people have been to many universities. DH went to Yale and I also thought New Haven and the Yale campus was a pretty awful place.

You seem to have a Valley Girl aesthetic. No wonder you didn't get Yale.

Yes, I caught that too with the “really pretty” comment. Valley girl or someone young and unsophisticated

UVA’s campus is average, and Charlottesville is a dump. I know I’m in the majority here on that statement, but I continue to be amazed by people who think Charlottesville is a cute college town.

And yet some rankings have UVA as most beautiful! Imagine that!

Nah. If it were one of the most beautiful campuses, 75% of the online pictures of the school wouldn't be of the same building (Bascom Hall).

May be a good school but it's not in the running for "most beautiful college campuses." Not even close.

Yale.
