10. Brigham Young University

Do you like your men like you like your coffee–AKA hot, sweet and the perfect pick-me-up to bring home to mom? BYU breeds hotties with manners. Just watch them from the weight-room webcam. BYU’s fellas aren’t just invested in their biceps, though; warm weather brings an open-air farmer’s market to campus with local produce for students. So while your guy is getting yoked, he can be sure to follow some healthy eating habits, too. Top all of that with their highly-ranked football team, those lovely Mormon manners (manifested in a rape-prevention course on campus) and the sheer fact that there are 1,000 more men than women on campus, and it’s clear these BYU guys have a lot going for them. Ready to convert?
9. University of Virginia

A guy with a lax stick and long, flowing locks is pretty damn hot. You’ll find dozens of them sprinting across the field at UVA. Since 2012 alone, UVA has sent 12 of their lacrosse hotties to the national lacrosse league. No matter what their sport. Wahoos definitely put their bodies on their top-priority lists: The campus is dotted with more than 9 different recreational centers, facilities and fields—and they’re always packed. Beyond the gym, UVA partners with Local Food Hub to bring healthy local options to campus. What’s sexier than a dude eating a salad? And these guys are way smarter than your typical state school bro-types; the average SAT score for UVA students falls between 1870 and 2180. With nearly 30 percent of the student population going Greek these frat boys are notorious for looking hot while being philanthropic. In fact, UVA’s Greek system donates nearly $400,000 and over 56,000 hours annually to charities. Guys that give? Even better.
8. The United States Military Academy

It’s a school full of men in uniform. I don’t have to say much more. Well, except that basically everyone on campus is legally required to be fit. The Military Academy’s department of physical education—yep, it’s an entire department—is dedicated to not only chiseling those American muscles, but building “warrior leaders of character.” Even that mere description is hot. You can see their hard work in action at their highly-rated football games. And the Military Academy is free, so get ready to swoon when your guy chivalrously shells out for your meals together. Imagine lines of uniformed men dropping and giving you 20 at the sound of a whistle. Get ready to reap the benefits of an 84 percent male student body.
7. Texas A & M

Every Friday Night Lights fan knows you can accidentally day-dream an entire class away just at the thought of Tim Riggins running across a football field in slow motion. Basically, that’s life at Texas A&M. (Not really, but if you’re searching for your “Texas Forever” life partner, look here.) The Aggies are seriously dedicated to their football and you can be dedicated to watching them. There’s a reason you’ll want to stare: These guys are lifting over 35,000 pounds of free weights in A&M’s gyms. Their Greek life is not only prolific, but pretty damn safe; the school website has an entire section listing frat chapters on probation, so you always know exactly which fellas to party it up with. Not to mention, they have a lower percentage of violence than any other AAU school. A&M guys are clearly respectful. While they’re treating you the way you deserve, they’ll be staying super healthy since the dining halls have an electronic listing of every single vegetarian and vegan option available on campus. Texas forever, indeed.
6. University of North Carolina Chapel Hill

Ah, the sweet smells of springtime. At UNC Chapel Hill, spring bring some wonderful opportunities for campus cuties to strip down in public. UNC has killer outdoor gym facilities including challenge courses, an outdoor swimming pool, volleyball courts, a golf course and even a beautiful waterside location at Kerr Lake. Basically, guys at UNC will barely ever be indoors and you can watch these hotties preen like newborn, sexy birds in springtime. And they take their health seriously in the colder months too. UNC’s dining halls were recognized in the Huffington Post for exceptional vegetarian options, meaning these guys eat clean. If you like your guys of the athletic variety, the Tarheels basketball and the fabulous D1 men’s swimming teams—gotta love those swimmer V’s—give you plenty of, ahem, options.
5. University of Alabama

Let’s face it: We all go weak in the knees for a southern accent, and University of Alabama is a breeding ground for this famous hospitality. Rumor has it their tight-laced business school molds the hottest—and most fiscally responsible—guys on campus. But don’t worry, these guys aren’t all manners. Bama, the Heaven of Frats, brings the fun: 29 IFC fraternities and some incredible facilities. Since 2005, 12 frat houses have been renovated to MTV Crib-status. Afraid you won’t get invited to one of these bumpin’ frat parties where you could maybe bump into your future southern gent? Fear not. “Only about 33 percent of campus is Greek, however, a much higher percentage of people interact with Greek life on a regular basis,” said Michelle Pearson, a sophomore. And if you aren’t into the whole frat lifestyle, you can stare in awe at the beautiful guys playing on their number 2 nationally-ranked football team. “The football culture definitely allows students to mingle and meet. Tailgating on the Quad is an unforgettable experience and allows students to spend a whole day enjoying another Bama win with their friends,” Pearson said. Imagine parking lots filled with sweet-talkin’ guys dressed to the 9s. Does that sound like paradise to you?
If he’s at the tailgate and you’re at the tailgate, you might as well see if there’s chemistry. Find out with happn. The app connects you to hotties you’ve already crossed paths with.
4. California Polytechnic State University

If you’re into the brooding, exotic type, you’ll love Cal Poly. Guys can major in Wine and Viticulture—so he’ll always know what merlot pairs with your meal. Cal Poly fits the bill for California healthy too, with tons of juice bars on campus. And between wine class and the juice bar, they shred the waves nearby. Their surf teams bring the girls to the yard. “The surfers on the team wear their gear around campus with pride and I think they are highly regarded when seen wearing it,” said Adam Redding-Kaufman, president of the club surf team. “I’ve definitely seen a few girls perk up when they hear about surf team events.” But they don’t just ride the waves, they learn the safety of the ocean, too. These guys can get certified for lifeguarding, CPR and first aid—so they can make your heart beat in more ways than one. When they’re not surfing, you’ll find them at sunrise yoga or on caving excursions rock climbing. “[We] have so many groups of beautiful, intelligent, active people that love the outdoors!” Kaufman said. If you like your guys tanned, this is the place to go.
3. University of California Los Angeles

UCLA is the hip, Hollywood side to Cal Poly’s cool laid-back vibe—with famous, classic hottie alums like James Dean to boot. With Beverly Hills nearby, it’s almost a crime to be unattractive. “Guys here are really focused and driven, plus UCLA is a very high-energy campus so they’re also enthusiastic and funny,” said Minali Mohindra, a senior. The incredible weather equals tan and fit. “And UCLA has so many stairs, so if you’re into boys with nice butts…” Say no more, we’re sold. With six pools on campus, you’ll be sure to catch them in action. Or you’ll find them at Bruin Plate dining hall—zero French fries, soda or desserts—getting poolside-ready. While their bodies are toned, so are their minds: 97 percent of the student body were in the top 10 percent of their high school class. So they’re hot and smart. And they help other students feel safe. UCLA’s Community Service Officer program trains student volunteers to provide evening escorts for other students. “A lot of people take advantage of it (including me)… It’s super casual and convenient, and definitely feels a lot safer,” Mohindra said. So basically, those hotties you watch by the pool every day just might give you a walk home.
2. Yale University

Yale brings all the nation’s overachievers under one roof. These guys work hard and play harder. Frats at Yale are mainly just for parties, but we don’t mind. Membership tends to follow sport lines, so pick your sport fetish and exclusively poach from those houses. It’s diabolical, but incredibly efficient. When these guys aren’t in class or throwing crazy parties where you can get your flirt on, they’re sweating it out at the school’s squash courts, fencing salons and sailing center. (They have normal rec facilities, but these bougie ones are hotter.) “Those not on a varsity team often engage in one of the many club or intramural sports leagues. Plus, it’s hard to go a day without seeing many students going on runs or engaging in frisbee/football/snowball fights outside,” said Derek Soled, a senior at Yale and captain of the Fencing team. “We’re all about the mind and body, constantly trying to improve!” And it shows. Their SAT writing scores are especially impressive and some even achieve a perfect 800. Yale guys will woo you with their words and their bodies.
1. University of Southern California

The epitome of California sexy, Trojans seem genetically modified to attract. That’s probably because they have incredibly up-to-date gym facilities, with weight rooms galore and 21,800 square feet of sport courts. Their intense dedication to physical perfection pays off though. Guys show up—wearing as little clothing as possible—to cheer on their D1 football team. “The tailgates are an integral part in partying, having fun, meeting people at SC and just spreading the Trojan spirit,” said Willa,* a sophomore at USC. And USC isn’t just a football school, since they have tons of other successful teams like their D1 swimming team (remember that swimmer’s V we mentioned earlier?). And their 23 IFC fraternities throw so many parties you’ll feel like you’re in a Nicki Minaj video. These frat guys are some of the sexiest philanthropists you’ll meet. In 2015 alone, USC fraternities raised over $300,000 for charities across the nation. “At the end of the day, beauty’s in the eye of the beholder, right? …Yes, USC guys are attractive,” Willa said. But luckily, they’re not just pretty to look at. “USC is one of the best universities in the nation, so going to school with these guys who were intellectual and successful enough to be accepted and end up attending is totally attractive. Intelligence is attractive.” And USC has the numbers to prove it: SAT scores ranging as high as 2230. While California is clearly the place to find your new beautiful guy, USC takes the cake.
