Help Finding Conservative Colleges in New England?

Hey guys! I come from a pretty conservative background and I am curious if there are some noted conservative colleges in New England. It would be very helpful if someone can provide some insights about this.

Absolutely, I can help with that! Given your conservative background, you might find a strong sense of community and shared values at some liberal arts institutions in New England known for their more conservative student bodies or support for conservative perspectives, though remember, political leanings can vary across any campus.

For instance, you might want to consider the Thomas More College of Liberal Arts in Merrimack, New Hampshire. It has a close-knit community and offers a strong classical liberal arts education rooted in Catholic intellectual tradition.

Another school to consider is Assumption University, a Catholic university in Worcester, Massachusetts, which is known for its liberal arts curriculum and its commitment to the principles of Catholic social teaching, which some see as embodying a more conservative worldview.

Gordon College, located in Wenham, Massachusetts, might also be a good fit. It's an interdenominational Christian liberal arts college where faith plays an essential role in academic and student life.

Lastly, there's also the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts. It's a Jesuit liberal arts college with a reputation for rigorous academics and a strong community of faith.

Remember, it's important to check if these colleges align with your academic goals and interests apart from their political atmospheres. You can always visit these campuses, engage with students, and ask questions that can help give you an idea of the overall climate. Every college has a variety of viewpoints, and you're likely to find like-minded students no matter where you go.
