   How it compares

   Among 2,515 universities in the United States, this is a public community college rather than a large research university. Its main distinction is the combination of a wide programme list and the unusually high elevation of its South Lake Tahoe location, which may matter more to applicants looking for a specific setting than to those comparing large urban campuses.
