Things to Consider
Butler University
- 1 Climate is the major red flag—only 186 sunny days/year with cold, gray winters (December-March) does NOT match 'loves sunshine' preference
- 2 Private school cost around $64K/year before merit aid (though 95%+ receive $15K-$28K scholarships)
- 3 Nature access requires transportation—not immediately surrounding campus like mountain or beach settings
- 4 Moderate economic diversity (18-20% Pell Grant recipients) and limited racial/ethnic diversity compared to some peers
