Like the idea of being in or within driving distance of a big city. Favorite campuses so far are UF and ND. Not a fan of Gainesville and no appealing big city close by. Ruled out UT Austin due to low chance for OOS and UVA due to grossly unappealing campus tour. Unsure about leaving state/being far away from home but would absolutely do it for ND. Still planning to visit Auburn, GT, UTK, and UGA this fall. Are there others I should consider?
