As far as I'm concerned there is only one real choice in a College anymore and that is Hillsdale.

I believe they are one of only two institutions in America which refuse all forms of Federal aid.

Therefore they are not bound by all those silly Federal rules.

I highly recommend "Imprimus". I get it monthly and it's always a very good read.

The daughter of a close friend graduated from Hillsdale. Liberals paint the campus as closed to all but conservative ideas; in fact, it's the opposite. It may be one of the last colleges in America where conservative ideas are examined and debated. In almost all other places of 'higher' education there's only one acceptable answer to all societal problems: liberalsim. My friend's daughter found Hillsdale open, friendly, and not just conservative.>

My daughter goes to Patrick Henry College. They do not accept any federal or state aid. She wasn't even able to use her National Merit Scholarship (funded by a private party, but with some government connections) there.

Hillsdale's definitely a solid choice, but there are other good ones. I went to Liberty; they do allow students to take federal aid (Pell grants, student loans, etc.) but have not really watered anything down in the process. They do not have tenure for professors; they openly teach what they want. Professors are all evangelical conservative Christians and they keep it that way. There are a few other really good ones as well, but they're definitely in the minority.
