5 - Excellent	six360 February 21 2012	It was great and clean. The architecture is a little boring in my opinion, but at least its uniform. [View Full Report]

5 - Excellent	givings August 07 2010	Beautiful campus. At one point, we were walking around one of the residential college sections and I looked up and thought "This looks like Vail Villege." [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	FallenAngel9 June 09 2010	This campus appears to me to be about as beautiful as it gets. There is a nice mix of classy, older-looking buildings and more modern buildings that blend well with the other style. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	cosine45 April 10 2010	It felt like I was entering a castle while walking through Brookings Hall. Lots of open fields and quadrangles. South 40 felt like a resort, no joke. Similar to Duke/Princeton but less congested. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	sixstring91 April 09 2010	The place was a mansion - nay, a castle. So beautiful, and everything undergoes rotational renovations. I didn't know they made colleges this nice. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	Ebtrvl April 07 2010	Very well kept yet a little too uniformed...a lot of brick. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	IvanKaramozov January 01 2010	Missouri red granite + castle-like architecture = beautiful campus!!!! Very spacious and within walking distance of parks. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	Okashii December 30 2009	The campus is beautiful! It was under construction when I visited, though, which is why I'm not rating it a 5. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	applicannot September 27 2009	The campus is beautiful. It's beautiful in an impressive kind of way, though the buildings are a bit uniform. The campus was well-taken care of with lots of sitting areas and lots of shady tree [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	einnob July 20 2009	Their campus is beautiful! Its like a castle, with a very gothic style. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	HereToSucceed92 April 08 2009	It was everything that I pictured a college to look like. I thought it would look different from the pictures in their brochures and it did; it was even better! [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	xlifeforgod March 21 2009	Buildings may look like they came out of Harry Potter, but they are all pretty new. Lots of buildings were still under construction when i went. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	dadd March 10 2009	Very clean and attractive. Always some construction going on though so it never feels DONE but it is a reality of a rapidly growing institution with a good reputation. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	beyond_stressed February 27 2009	I went when all the plants were dead, so I'm sure it can be prettier, but man the place looks great. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	hookem168 November 11 2008	Best I've seen so far. Not overly gothic/depressing, but thoroughly classic and aged. Although there was some construction, that can't be avoided. Very spacious and beautiful. [View Full Report]
3 - Good	obeythecougar July 25 2008	Most disappointed in these next two aspects. As a premier university, Wash U's campus was lame. All academic buildings look the exact same, the dorms are an obnoxious orange color, and continued [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	pmrlcomm July 13 2008	Ranks just behind Vandy (admittedly biased) based on the schools we have been to. It has a beautiful, garden like appearance. The buildings are great. Lots of construction and new amenities. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	chezdan27 July 02 2008	All of the buildings use the same gothic architecture, and I love how the University builds all of the new buildings to look like the old ones. The campus reminds me of London... [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	inthemistylight June 26 2008	The gothic architecture missed some flying buttresses :) it was actually very nice and neat and organized. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	iVinshe April 21 2008	Lots of construction. Beautiful buildings. The same color scheme can get boring after a while. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	spazattack March 17 2008	Although there was a lot of construction going on, the buildings looked very new outside and well kept. It was cold and rainy the day we went so we didn't see washu at its apex. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	jgladiator January 21 2008	It is a beautiful campus. It looks much nicer than the pictures. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	m&m&m January 16 2008	What a beautiful campus! Spotless and modern inside. Graceful faux Gothic outside. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	sanjenferrer November 23 2007	I happened to visit on a rainy day, so the campus looked quite gloomy but still lovely (I think the rain enhanced the effect of the Gothic architecture). I loved the view from the arch. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	PhogHawk October 25 2007	To die for. The whole campus is designed in a "University Gothic" architectural style. The constant look is very college-eque and homey. The whole campus is just like the post cards. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	katieg21 August 12 2007	It's got the gothic style buildings and brick walkways that make you feel like you're at a castle. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	arkitex August 07 2007	Some ongoing construction, but it did not detract. [View Full Report]
4 - Very Good	JustMe17 June 27 2007	The buildings are beautiful, mostly Gothic-style architecture, but fully modern inside. The grounds were extremely well kept, though lacking some of the extras that would have earned a 5. [View Full Report]
5 - Excellent	thereugo June 12 2007	I loved the hammocks infront of dorms, gorgeous library, and cafes. I loved the light green colored roof of each buildings. It perfectly matches the trees. The campus was very clean, and lively. [View Full Report]
