You could look at the Claremont Colleges (Pomona, Harvey Mudd, CMC, Pitzer, Scripps).

While they are LACs they are all part of a larger university setting of about 5500 undergrads, plus two graduate institutions.

University of Tulsa? I've heard it's the smallest Division I school.

Colgate, Bucknell, Wesleyan, Holy Cross all have from 700-950 students per class and three of them are actually called university. SUNY Geneseo could be another consideration.

Given the specifics of the OP's original question, Doctorb's list looks like the right answer. The Claremont Colleges constitute a unique answer since they are literally both liberal arts colleges and a quasi-university that "feels" like liberal arts colleges.

I would add Princeton to doctorb's excellent list.

Some universities have departments in which there is no graduate program. Undergrads get 100% of the resources in those departments, and I am happily in one of them within my large university

The University of Tulsa definitely has that LAC feel. The classes are small and the professors are very willing to help their students.
