Well, Rochester, Tufts, W&M, and Wake are kind of the odd ones out on the way USNWR does National University rankings. They have that in common.

Rochester, Tufts, W&M, Wake, Tulane all moved together when the methodology changed. Tulane more so than the rest.

Binghampton specifically targeted trying to be W&M at one time, but they don't seem similar. American would need a corollary that is in D.C. D.C. is Georgetown > GW > American.

Technically W&M's closest academic and geographic peer would probably be UVA because both have 1470 median with 59% submitting scores (i think W&M's 25th is 10 SAT points lower than UVA's and their 75th is 10 SAT points higher) but UVA is more than double the size so I would say WFU is their closest peer.

UGA is closer to Alabama than Florida. Sorry, USNews junkies.
Daughter got into both UGA and UF. toured both, studied both. I think they are similar plus we don't have to wear that heinous orange and blue.

Incredibly rigorous but not purely in STEM, otherwise maybe a Johns Hopkins, but while Johns Hopkins has a phenomenal internationalrelations department, UChicago is know equally for physics, math, economics, business.
I think if you shed the “CS only” view of the school, Stanford is pretty similar.

A pretty normal thread on colleges that are similar to one another. Hit your head?
