Politics and College Choice

I would add William and Mary University in Virginia, for a conservative student body, and U of Alabama in Tuscaloosa which may not have a great rank, but it does have outstanding programs in many subjects and quite conservative. Alabama offers very top merit awards and thus is very popular with middle class students who
can go there for a great bargain as well.

Baylor University in Texas,
which is very strong for engineering, and asks students to sign a Christian promise.
Trinity University in San Antonio has a conservative student body, as does Southern Methodist
University in Dallas Texas.

A number of other schools around Los Angeles are rather conservative. Chapman U comes to mind
as does the Christian school, Azusa Pacific University, which requires a “Christian Behavior Contract”.

There are other Roman Catholic schools that are surprisingly conservative such as Boston College.
U of San Diego, private, Roman Catholic, is not that highly ranked but also attracts a more conservative crowd.

Then there are the ultra conservative private Christian colleges in Michigan. Some are quite extreme.
And U of Tulsa is preferred by many conservative families in Colorado, its a private Christian school
with a strong Roman Catholic student group.

Then pretty much all schools in Utah are conservative, some cater to Mormon students.
Kansas has its share of very conservative choices too.
U of Wyoming is very conservative, in Laramie at 7000 feet above sea level!

U of Colorado in Colorado Springs is very conservative as is Colorado State in Pueblo Colorado.
