Colleges for Beach Lovers

In my list of the features of the perfect college, I didn't include access to sun and sand. However, if your college experience wouldn't be complete without easy access to a great beach, you'll find that you have a lot of options.

These 14 colleges for beach lovers vary significantly in size, mission, and selectivity. All, however, have great beaches nearby. Some even have their own private beaches. Just make sure you add suntan lotion to your college packing list.
