Rivers and gardens and mountains, oh my! The world is often so beautiful that you want to share what you see with everyone by posting it on social media. Most of us have had a moment where a scenic view stopped us in our tracks and demanded a photo be taken—and this happens often on college and university campuses when potential students visit. Acting as both a home and hub for growth, most campuses take pride in their architecture, natural and curated landscapes, art installations, and more. Because who wouldn't like being surrounded by beauty for four formative years of their lives?
Organized by US regions, the colleges and universities on this list have been recommended by real high school students who visited these campuses and were impressed by what they saw. You'll learn a little bit about some of the highlights and features of the campuses, but this is just a fraction of the stunning locations and scenic views you'll find at each of these schools. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but you'll just have to take these students' word for it that these locations are worth the campus visit. Or maybe you can check out these schools' social media accounts to find out what the hype is about before you start planning your college trip!
