Alma mater of the most US presidents?

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know which college has produced the most US presidents? Not planning to be one myself (ha!), but wouldn't mind being in good company.

Harvard University holds the record for being the alma mater of the most U.S. presidents. Eight U.S. presidents attended Harvard at some point in their education, either for their undergraduate or graduate studies. These are John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Rutherford Hayes, John F. Kennedy, George W. Bush (for his MBA), and Barack Obama (for Law School). While this certainly is an interesting fact, it's important to remember that the institution attended by a president doesn't necessarily have a direct bearing on their success. It's more about the dedication, hard work, and leadership abilities of the individual.
