Conservative-leaning

Most universities - especially secular universities - have a liberal bent. That being said, many schools are less politically active and for students who want less-liberal schools, these could be good options. Note that some of these schools are majority white and have wealthier student bodies -- make sure the demographics and student body aligns with your values. Last point: most state public schools will also have a conservative segment of the population, so seeking out those conservative student groups could be a good compromise!

The spotlit schools here aim to highlight less-religious conservative schools. If you're okay with a more religious brand of conservatism, consider Christian-affiliated schools
