There are recommended college majors for each type, why not recommended colleges?

I have nothing to offer, but maybe someone else does? :D

Around 70% of the alumni of Carleton College, MN, are INTJs (one f my colleagues did the data collections and, anecdotally, three out of my four relatives who went there were INTJs...the fourth was ESTJ and always felt a bit out of synch)

There are definitely archetypes to campuses, but once you get into a major/department, the diversity appears.

Holy Crap :shock:

It reminds me of the deserted island thread a short while ago....

Edit: Is there a moat around the school?

from the stories i've heard, harvey mudd is pretty ENTP...

I am proud to announce that I was lurking on a college-forum thread about MBTI, and the first person to post "ENTP" as a result was from Harvey Mudd. Booooyahhh.
