Hey, I'm a junior thinking ahead about colleges and I think it's pretty cool that some colleges can say they've educated future US presidents. So which college has the most alumni who later became presidents? Thanks in advance!
Harvard University holds the record for having the most U.S. presidents as alumni. The university has eight U.S. presidents who were either graduates of their undergraduate programs or attended for their professional and graduate studies. The U.S. presidents who attended Harvard include John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Rutherford Hayes, John F. Kennedy, George W. Bush (Business School), and Barack Obama (Law School). It's great that you're curious about this, as it highlights a unique aspect of a college's history and influence.
