Highest score in category

1 Exceptional school spirit with Pac-12 athletics and 'Dam Right' culture - NOT a commuter school with 85% freshmen living on campus
2 AACSB-accredited business program ranked among top 100 public business schools with strong marketing emphasis and 90%+ placement rate
3 Outstanding outdoor recreation access with mountains and coast within 1 hour, plus excellent on-campus facilities (Dixon Recreation Center)
4 Active social scene with 500+ student organizations, vibrant weekend activities, and Greek life at ideal level (15-18%)
5 Strong internship opportunities with Nike, Intel, Columbia Sportswear partnerships and Portland business access

1 CRITICAL: Only 155-160 sunny days/year with rainy Pacific Northwest winters (Nov-Mar) - major mismatch for 'loves sunshine' preference
2 CRITICAL: Corvallis is small college town, NOT urban or near city - Portland is 90 minutes away, contradicting location preference
3 Large intro classes (50-200+ students) in first two years don't match desire for smaller classes and teacher support
4 Dance team requires competitive tryouts, not walk-on friendly - no guarantee of participation
5 Out-of-state tuition $33,678 is expensive with limited merit aid for non-residents
6 Limited public transportation requires car for full city access and regional exploration
