The Orlando campus is like paradise. The sustainable campus is among the greenest in the country. Combining the modern architecture of UCF with the well-kept environment makes for one stunning campus. Plus it's in Orlando, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

4. University of Chicago
The castle-like college is quite a deviance from what you'd expect of typical Chicago architecture. The gothic style of the older buildings, such as those pictured above, are reminiscent of Oxford. However, the University of Chicago is very progressive when it comes to architecture, with many modern styles being employed in the recent buildings. Instead of clashing, the many styles complement each other to make the University of Chicago one of the most beautiful schools in the country.

3. University of Colorado- Boulder
Sandstone walls and red-tiled roofs make CU's architecture one of the most beautiful and unique in the nation. The location of CU adds to its beauty, with a mountain backdrop and wooded campus. The college is also one of the greenest in the country, and is consistently leading the way when it comes to innovations in sustainability.

2. Pepperdine University
Pepperdine is situated right by the coast of the Pacific Ocean, but judging by the architecture, you'd think we were in the Mediterranean. Red tiled roofs, white stucco walls, and large windows are a recurring theme in the campus's style. With perfect climate, a beautiful campus, and the Pacific Ocean at your front door, what more could you ask for?

1. University of Notre Dame
It is impossible to capture Notre Dame's beauty in a single picture. The golden dome has become one of Notre Dame's most famous features, along with the Basilica, both pictured above. Covering 1,250 acres in South Bend, Indiana, the prestigious Notre Dame is a booming presence due to its size and awe-inspiring architecture.
