Howdy all! I really want to study somewhere that will offer me more than just academic excellence. I'm gunning for a beautiful campus as well. Can anyone help me out with some colleges that are known for having the most scenic and beautiful campuses? Many thanks!

2. Dartmouth College: This Ivy League institution in New Hampshire boasts a picturesque setting with a quaint college town, and easy access to outdoor activities due to its proximity to the White and Green Mountains.
3. University of Colorado Boulder: Located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, the campus has panoramic views of the mountains which make it truly breathtaking.
4. University of Notre Dame: The iconic Golden Dome, the Basilica, and the grandeur of the university's architecture combined with the landscaping, make it one of the most attractive campuses.
5. Stanford University: The campus features Spanish Colonial architecture, beautiful gardens, and the Dish hiking trail.
