Welcome to the
TeenCollegeEducation College Matcher! We have worked tirelessly to bring
you this list of colleges that will help find the right fit for you.
This is by no means a comprehensive guide, but a starting point with
what we considered to be the most striking colleges and universities in
each field.
We divided
the country into 4 regions: Northeast (NE), South (S), Midwest (MW),
and West (W). We then categorized many schools into one of nine sub
categories. These categories are Strictness, Artist Friendly, Urban,
Math and Science, Late Bloomers, Super Diverse, Plush, Jock, and Philosophical/Intellectual.
We tried to stay away from many of the obvious colleges for each
category, but in some areas there was no avoiding it. Take a look and
make sure to share with your friends!
If you have any suggestions or would like to see a particular college on the list, just let us know!

Strictness
NE
Manhattan College
Manhattan
College is strict, but one of the safest colleges around. There is a
zero tolerance policy regarding alcohol and drug use, but only drug use
will get a student expelled. Alcohol will force an RA to write up a
student, but the administration is not out to “catch” students.
Bucknell University
Grove City College
Grove
City College is a liberal arts school with a zero tolerance policy on
campus. Students who leave campus to drink must come back sober, or face
consequences which could include expulsion. Despite this, campus
security is friendly and also not necessarily looking to catch students.
S
Bob Jones University
Some students at Bob Jones University feel trapped by all the rules and regulations. The school has a demerit system where more than 150 demerits will could get a student expelled. Students earn demerits for actions such as being late to class, or most commonly, failing the daily room check.
West Point
Claflin University

the school has some other interesting rules, such as no walking on the
grass. However, punishments are usually not too severe.
Hampton University

entering campus from the outside, including students, is stopped and
questioned upon entry. There is also a dress code that students must
adhere to, although it has become a bit more lax over the years.
MW
Notre Dame
One would expect Notre Dame, a religious school, to be more strict. Although there is no prohibition of alcohol on campus, drug use and sex on campus will get a student expelled. Drinking too much could also result in fines.
Wheaton College
Wheaton College is a religious school, so their rules are also pretty strict. All students sign a Community Covenant and agree to live by the rules and regulations. Every rule is supported by the Bible, so there is little arguing about them. The school is not afraid to fine students for infractions
St. Olaf College

W
Brigham Young
You
might remember the basketball player who was punished at Brigham Young
earlier in the year for violating the honor code; this school takes its
values seriously. Students have been expelled for alcohol and drug use,
and curfew violations could get a student suspended. The honor code also
covers areas such as dress and grooming.
Pepperdine University
Pepperdine
is notoriously strict with all of its students. The campus is
completely dry, meaning that alcohol is prohibited. Students caught with
alcohol, drinking, or returning to campus drunk face punishment and
possible expulsion. Additionally, between 10 pm and 10 am, the campus
observes “quiet hours,” meaning that a student who causes too much noise
will be written up. 
University of San Diego
University

all other religious schools. Additionally, parking is difficult at USD,
and illegally parked cars are almost always fined.
