The 10 most LGBTQ-friendly colleges
Choosing a college as an LGBTQ student poses unique challenges. About 33% of LGBTQ students at four-year colleges were bullied, harassed, or assaulted, as opposed to 19% of non-LGBTQ students, according to research conducted by the Williams Institute at the UCLA School of Law.
This year, Best Colleges partnered with Campus Pride to find the top schools in the United States for LGBTQ students.
In finding these top colleges, Best Colleges used Campus Pride’s Index rating scale while also focusing on academic quality (i.e. enrollment, full-time retention, and graduation rate) and college affordability (schools that offer competitive tuition while also providing the skills needed to graduate and successfully enter the workforce).
According to the survey, here are some of the top LGBTQ-friendly colleges for students to consider:
- University of Maryland
- San Diego State University
- University of Washington
- Indiana University-Bloomington
- University of Massachusetts-Amherst
- Rutgers University
- George Mason University
- Kansas State University
- The University of Texas at Dallas
- University of North Florida
*Editor’s note: EAB congratulates our partner institutions who made the list.
The University of Maryland is committed to providing a safe space for its LGBTQ students. The LGBTQ+ Equity Center supports UMD students, alums, and staff across all gender identities and sexual orientations and provides various resources and events on campus. For example, Quelcome is a long-running program that allows LGBTQ students to connect and have fun. At the same time, Q Camp enables learners to participate in activities that provide positive support in areas that include identity development and campus involvement.
In addition, the university also provides scholarships, awards, and internships that allow students to work in community organizations that serve LGBTQ populations.
San Diego State University’s Pride Center is an inclusive space that helps students with their sexual orientation, romantic orientation, gender identity, and gender expression development. The center also routinely hosts monthly events, including Trans Week of Empowerment, Lavender Graduation, and Black Gay Pride Week.
The institution also provides the peer mentorship program called Pride House, where mentees work “with an upperclassman mentor who is invested in supporting the LBGTQIA+ community and interested in helping students achieve their personal and academic goals.”
In 2005, the University of Washington established The Q Center after the university president received a letter that requested a safe space for queer students. The center assists LGBTQ+ students, staff, and faculty by providing educational programs and community building. They also offer services such as EnGender—a program that strives to provide free and accessible gender-affirming items to anyone who needs them—and Color Mode, a weekly advising session that centers queer, trans, bi, non-binary, and gender non-conforming POC experiences.
Outside of the physical center, the institution provides many areas for LGBTQ+ students to stay connected through media, including a community newsletter, the QUEER (Queers Unpacking Everything Endlessly & Relentlessly) podcast, and a video that chronicles the queer experience on campus.
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended.

I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive.

“Top LGBTQ-friendly colleges”
Hmmm.
Nope.
“Top REALITY-hating colleges”
Yep.
That’s the one.
Make no mistake, the transgender movement is not a grass root movement. It’s coming from the top. It’s a psyop with several objectives: The destruction of the nuclear family, moral relativism, infertility, depopulation & societal division of the human race.

Yes, no doubt about it.
I’m pretty sure one of my nephews is going to Maryland University next year. Oh shit, do you think he’s gay? I can hear it now.
I don’t know anyone who’s going to University of Maryland, so … yeah, he’s probably gay.
Haha
I’m just thankful that the queers in my family tree are far removed from my immediate bloodline.
You don’t pick your cousins.
I have no idea how UCSC (Santa Cruz) didn’t make the list. I spoke at last Tuesdays city council where they had installed, from left to right the Pride flag, US flag (right together as if one flag), then to the right State and trans flag (right together as if one flag), then the city flag. Flag protocol would have the two queer flags to the right of the city flag on the far right, but that’s beside the point.
It was LGBTQ2A+ leadership award Day where a procession of queer youth came forward to get their awards and get a pic taken with the Mayor.
Barf bags were not provided.
Of course there is no such human being that is a LGBTQ2A+ PERSON, it’s a fictitious made up leftist group identity of many different people with many different issues, concerns, and the purpose as far as I can tell is so some of those groups can sponge off the legitimacy of some issues and hope they acquire the same.
Of course the trans rights thingy is quite different since that movement advocates child mutilation, taking harmful puberty blockers without even parental knowledge, the end of women’s sports, bathroom privacy, etc you know the drill.
Yeah, it was all “you poor oppressed victims , how brave you are” stuff puke fest.
Incidentally part of the agenda was formalizing the elimination of the pledge of allegiance to the US flag which they unofficially did long ago “to save time”.
Asked myself the same question…
It was a bullshit pledge from day one.
The people who demanded it from the public betrayed the exact same flag simultaneously.
One’s loyalty to any flag or banner must have a quid pro co or what is the point of allegiance?
From my vantage point, the federal gov is not doing their main job of securing the borders.
Among most other jobs they claim are important.
Contract is broken.
I shall never salute any flag or banner, until MY VOICE IS treated as equally as important as all others; instead of as a voiceless scapegoat for the problems manufactured by this idiocracy.
I won’t disagree with your position, but most of my point is they have PLENTY of time to give out awards and praise the “bravery and courage” of youth just for being totally queer (recall the joke the millennials grew up getting an award just for showing up, now for gen-z it’s for being totally queer), but ZERO time for a 15 second pledge to our country and what it stands for (OK, it doesn’t live up to that ideal, but it doesn’t make those ideals wrong).
Gays campaigned for years to be treated like everybody else. They succeeded and gained every right that had been previously denied them, particularly marriage, parenthood, and freedom from discrimination in any setting. But wait – once they achieved these things, it was no longer “be treated like everybody else.” Now they must be admired and celebrated, they must NOT be treated like everybody else. Their need for exceptionalism as a victim class will never be satisfied.
We had quite a battle at my city’s Council meetings over demands that the Pride flag be flown along with US flag on city pole during the month of June. Ultimately it was denied.
Could you compromise and hang one of the degenerates from the pole?
What is worse is human beings will act to get rewards. What is rewarded is what people will seek. The government has no right taking sides in essentially a moral question out in the court of public opinion. They can write laws protecting individual rights , but beyond that they overstep their authority as “queer crusaders”.
This is the first year flags went up inside the council chambers. For 3 years triple pride combo flags were plastered all over the civic auditorium across the street. The resolution (passed when the progressives had a brief majority before we recalled their asses, the first successful recall in 150 years) that authorized this is only for the month of June, but they leave them up until the fall and then I complain, then amazingly they come day the next day as they become illegal signs in a public place. Although I haven’t tested it, one of our sign ordinances says illegal signs in public places can be removed at will by anyone. I might want legal advice first, but I’m tempted.
UT Dallas. Impressive! /s
With faggots breathing the same air I’ve started wearing the mustard gas mask at least when traversing the DFW environment. Even if I don’t get out of the vehicle until final destination. People stare and point at me at DFW Airport . Mask up !
No Oregon colleges? They have to be close to that top ten. Someone I know attended OSU and this was 15 years ago. Said the “counseling” sessions included questioned pertaining to one’s sexual “thoughts” of themselves. Praise the Lord the someone left that behind.
This is why I’m pleased to announce the following:
Abigail and I have jointly created, funded, and started The College Level Homeschooling Program! We’re calling it The Lone Wolf Program for Sigma Men and Women!
To parents:
Since no college is worth sending your White child to, and the debt will only place chains around their wrists and compel them to work for Corporations and get vaxxed, we’ve done the impossible and what was previously inconceivable –
Designed an entire Homeschooling Program for the College Level White Sigma Student!
Yes, you and your child will save $$$$ by following our Affirmative-Action Free Curriculum to achieve your educational goals. And best of all, neither you nor your child will be forced to be part of any groups you don’t want to be part of. It’s segregation on steroids!
Abigail, I don’t have the curriculum in front of me, could you take over this presentation and outline the curriculum, along with the educational philosophy, overall cost of the program, and some examples of courses? Thanks.
We’ll be unveiling the entire program on our website, LoneWolfSigma.com, which is coming soon!
Abigail, the floor is yours.
I am most interested.
Abigail will fill everyone in when she arrives.
I would say “congratulations”, perhaps, but only after scrutinizing your curriculum.
One book salesman is not necessarily different from the next.
Your strategy is sound. I do not dispute your approach. But I am bound to question your ends.
Everything turns upon that, does it not?
Not sharing my secrets now, but it will look similar to this.
https://monticellocollege.org/
Wow. I bet that 100% of commenters on TBP never knew about Monticello College. Now they do.
So it took me writing a writing a fake comment about a fake project to get you to share it. This is what I meant: turning negative to positive. Alchemy. It can be done.
Maybe you can use the site to actually get some people here to send their kids there. Write a post about it and send it to admin. Show people the way.
Thanks.
Archie, this one’s for you:
A month ago, there was the biannual large national Protestant “festival”/meeting in Nuernberg, Germany. After a week of discussions, lectures and religious services, there were approximately 25 000 people in attendance at the final service.
Germany has less than 1% blacks, but they found one to give the sermon!
He said things like “We are all the last generation.” and “Black lives always matter.”
And then, to top it off, he preached “Now is the time to say: God is queer!”
I already talked to a few people who felt like that was the straw that broke the camel’s back, and they will never support such a blasphemous institution ever again.
Christianity has been largely ruined, at least the version in churches.
I went to my mom’s church a few years ago and the lesbian minister began discussing White Supremacy. Ugh.
I went to Purdue in the 1980s. We all knew back then that IU was gay!
You know why there are so many good seats in Mackey Arena?
No banners to get in the way!!!
Hahahahahahahaha!
Puck Furdue!
Is there even one decent college left? Seems doubtful.
Hillsdale College. Only one I know of in “America”.
Yes, there is one that hasn’t fallen to the degenerates and that is the College of the Ozarks, which one of our granddaughters is attending at present. No fags allowed. Christian environment and no funny business.
Panzerlied? Are you back? It’s been a while.
https://talk.collegeconfidential.com/t/which-schools-do-not-have-any-cultural-diversity-or-social-justice-coursework-requirements/2098589/9
This is a little dated (2020), but it listed a few from that time period. My guess would be to start at community colleges, taking classes online so you don’t have to associate with the psycho alphabet people, then finding a school you can transfer to that doesn’t require bullshit “diversity” curriculum. My guess is pretty much everyone offers it, but there are probably some that don’t require it.
I just looked at the catalog of a school I attended, Wayne State College in Nebraska. I was doing an online MBA there some years ago (until I ran out of money, then time). According to their current catalog, you’re required to take a course to, “understand the diverse economic, cultural, ethical, social, environmental, and/or political implications that influence local, regional, and/or national society.” However, the list of courses you can choose from include Principles of Microeconomics, Physical Geography and American National Government. So it looks like you can skate around any BS multi-culti crap. There are probably other schools like that, just have to look a bit.
Don’t send your kid to an Ivy League school. Ever. Unless you want them to become retarded leach faggots … who steal money from everyone else.
Here’s a laugh. My father was , for a time in the 60’s, a barber. The “Ivy League” has a lock on that hairstyle to this day.
Sometimes the “little shit” amounts to more than you could imagine.
Never give an inch, Stucky.
Thank you Williams Institute at the UCLA School of Law for warning us about Pervert Pride schools.
It was all over when we stopped speaking to our neighbors.
Good fainted and evil prospered.
Surely it has to be broken down by top schools for tops and bottoms, no?
When such bizarreness is a strong emphasis of the academy, then know the time is very short for them as an institution.
My wife and I were astonished during a recent evening bike ride in our city to see so many fag flags being displayed on people’s homes. I told her that in each and every one of those homes, the residents are 100% fully vaxed too. It serves as a potent reminder of how completely ignorant most people are. I don’t think it a stretch to compare them with peasant serfs of another time; only I wonder that the present serfs think themselves to be so much more than their predecessors.
THIS is the school to send your children (if you absolutely must send them to college).
I can vouch for these folks. Good people.

Please write a post about it. It would be your first guest post.
Actually, could you write a post about alternative colleges like this? You must know more. Admin could post it and you might sway some parents to consider other options to the Credential Mill. It’s like throwing a stone into a still pond. Use the site to make ripples. I’d like to see that.
The people behind the idea of this school were very instrumental in my own life. They changed my life & how I think, actually. I would be very happy to send my own flesh & blood to this school and feel very confident that they’d come out better than any of their peers at any other college/university, including Ivy League. If you want your child to get a true education in life, this is the place.
I’m heartened reading that, Abigail. Thank you. If you ever want to write a post about such things, and perhaps affect many many readers, please do.
Love the comments.

Wellesley College. This is one of the funniest Rogan clips I’ve ever seen. He has a field day with this example of how fucking deranged the LGBTQWTF nutjobs are.
Joe Rogan on Leftist Social Retards & Piranhas
Joe Rogan reminds me of the average American restaurant.
They’re open six days a week, they have all the best equipment, they’re patronized by large numbers of people, they have access to whatever they need and yet they can’t produce anything that’s satisfying or even enjoyable.
He is the very definition of inarticulate despite spending hundreds of thousands of hours talking. He is remarkably uninformed even though he has hundreds of interesting and knowledeable guests pass through his studio, and it takes him an hour to say something that any normal person could sum up in a few sentences. And he is somehow billed as a comic though I cannot think of a single funny thing he has ever said, much less an actual joke he’s written.
You have to wonder how it’s even possible to have all those advantages and still offer up a huge steaming plate of dreck every single time.
He knew a girl from wesley back in the disay? WTF?
I cannot fathom what the attraction is with this guy.
Joe Rogaine – when you have to reach up to punch down, Joe’s yer guy!

A much more useful list would consist of colleges/universities that are safe for your chillrens. I can honestly think of only one, Hillsdale.
I have a friend that went to Hillsdale. She is one of the most amazing women I know. Extremely intelligent & just a wonderful person all around. (She would be my bestie…if Sigmas actually wanted a bestie. 🙂)
I’ve often wanted her to join this site & the discussions cuz she can intelligently kick anyone’s ass and it’s just amazing to see her at it. BUT…she is extremely against profanity (I clean up my language around her) and will refuse to participate if anyone uses profanity around her. She is very strict about that.
Anyway, since knowing her I was always jealous that I didn’t go to Hillsdale. But, I have taken many of their free courses offered online.
Having said all that, I am concerned that Hillsdale is just the other side of the coin, if you know what I mean. You know, they play the game, etc. I still love their curriculum, however.
The communists have captured the universities while Boobus Americanus was warching football and drinking Bud Light. 50 years ago Kansas Stae was a relatively conservative school.
