Which is the most northern college in the US?

This might sound weird but I love cold weather and I’m actually looking for a college in the north. Does anyone know which college holds the title for being the most northern in the US? Any information helps, thanks!

If you're looking for the northernmost college in the United States, that would be the University of Alaska in Fairbanks. The main campus is located near the Fairbanks city center in the Fairbanks North Star Borough, and it's quite close to the Arctic Circle.

Located in a region known for its frigid weather, the university has a unique set of academic offerings tied to its location. For example, they have strong programs in Arctic Biology, Wildlife Biology and Conservation, and Northern Studies. Plus, if you enjoy the outdoors, there are plenty of opportunities for hiking, skiing, and wildlife observation in the surrounding area!

This university could be a great choice for someone like you who loves cold weather and wants to experience life in the far north.
