Hey there! It's totally understandable that you want to find an LGBTQ+ friendly college where you'll feel comfortable and included. In recent years, many colleges across the US have been striving to create a safe and supportive environment for LGBTQ+ students, so you have plenty of options.

1. Tufts University: Known for its strong commitment to inclusion and diversity, Tufts has a variety of LGBTQ+-specific resources available, including the LGBT Center and gender-inclusive housing options.

2. University of California, Berkeley: UC Berkeley has a rich history of LGBTQ+ activism. They have an active Gender Equity Resource Center, as well as a dedicated LGBTQ+ living-learning community called Unity House.

3. New York University: NYU has a Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality, a Gender and Sexuality Studies undergraduate program, and an LGBTQ+ Center which organizes various events and provides resources to the community.

4. Stanford University: Stanford has a dedicated Queer Student Resources center, offers gender-neutral housing, and has strong LGBTQ+ representation in their faculty.

These schools are just a few examples of the many LGBTQ+-friendly colleges across the US. When looking for a college that fits your criteria, consider schools that have committed LGBTQ+ centers, resources, ally training programs, and community events. It might also be helpful to check out online resources like the Campus Pride Index to research schools based on their inclusivity towards the LGBTQ+ community.
