Holy Cross is beautiful but Worcester is ugly.

A couple of people mentioned the Air Force Academy; the scenery around the Academy is breathtaking -- but the campus itself is about as uninspired as it gets.

West Point has all the other academies beat and IMHO its the prettiest campus anywhere.

UI- sike! It's great if you like insanely flat places, and corn. So in other words, if you like the rest of the state of Illinois .

Really, the buildings are all quite nice and our quad is pretty schweet. It's just not exactly where I go for sightseeing.

The University of Virginia campus is quite stunning. I've lived in Charlottesville for the last five years and love the architecture.

I saw Washinton and Lee. It looks like they rinse those columns on the buildings in bleach they're so white! And the grass is so green! VMI next door could have leaves covering and WL would be spotless. Sorta funny. It's beautiful but I wouldn't go there. Full of sororities and frats.

UChicago... if you like the gothic look. Amazingly, I never get bored with my school's stunning architecture.

i can't believe someone in this thread called duke ugly in comparison to unc. yeah, parts of carolinas campus are really nice, but i saw plenty of dorms when exploring campus recently that look like low income housing projects. real beautiful.

Meh, I think pepperdine looks like a high school. It's the surroundings that are nice.

i can't believe no one has mentioned Sweet Bria College in VA. It's small but it was ranked the number one most beautiful campus in the country by Princeton review...
