Strong disagree with UPenn and Carnegie Mellon. Congested nightmares.

I'll give you Carnegie Mellon (great school, but fugly AF). UPenn is gorgeous, in spite of being in the city.

Many of those schools that were ranked, were ranked because the surrounding area is gorgeous, whereas the school is meh. UC-Boulder is gorgeous when you're looking around but the campus is sort bland.

IMHO, the surrounding area shouldn't be a factor in determining whether a campus is "pretty" or not. There are so many small colleges in the Northeast that are absolutely gorgeous, but they aren't on the list.
