There is a small number of conservative colleges in the United States. Many feature lower tuition, non-tenured faculty, emphasis on merit, and conservative student bodies. Examples include:

  1. Grove City College - 600 students per grade, the finest conservative college in science-related fields or business; maintains a 50%-50%[1] male-female ratio[2]
  2. Liberty University - 3000 students per grade, "the largest and fastest growing Christian Evangelical university in the world"
  3. Patrick Henry College - 80 students per grade, the finest conservative college for debate,[3] good political connections for internships
  4. Thomas Aquinas College
  5. Christendom College - 100 students per grade, the entire school participates in the annual March for Life
  6. Franciscan University at Steubenville - largest conservative Catholic college
  7. Benedictine College
  8. King's College in New York City - located in the Empire State Building
  9. United States Coast Guard Academy - more Christian than most Christian colleges
  10. University of Dallas
  11. Ave Maria University - increased to 300 students per grade
  12. Bob Jones University - Republican presidential candidates speak here to win support in South Carolina
  13. Hillsdale College[4] - known for its free-market economics department
  14. Newberry College - welcomes homeschoolers on its website and is located in conservative South Carolina
  15. Brigham Young University - massive and well-funded institution in Utah

  2. College of the Ozarks (Point Lookout, Missouri)
  3. Wheaton College (Wheaton, Illinois)
  4. Claremont McKenna College (Claremont, California)
