UChicago: Because I was waitlisted at Hogwarts.
If you didn’t believe us:
“The University of Chicago has got Hogwarts written all over it, not least of all in its majestic dining center, Hutchinson Hall, which just so happens to be a replica of Oxford’s Christ Church (the same used in the Harry Potter films).”

The Chicago Maroon’s current photo editor, Darren Leow, has captured some of the beautiful faces that greet us on our way to class. (Also, yes, dear nerds, we do know that most of these are technically grotesques).
UChicago = Hogwarts
For the Inner Nerd in all of us: Five Colleges that Look Like Hogwarts.
We know, with the last movie of the series coming up, there’s been a Harry Potter mania sweeping the country even more than usual. Whether you’re sick to death of it or can’t get enough, take a look at these stunning schools that will definitely satisfy those castle-cravings.
1. University of Chicago Modeled after Oxford and consistently ranked one of the top ten schools in the country, UChicago is nothing but gorgeous Gothic architecture and incredible views. In addition, UChicago boasts a proud house system—36 Houses named after their original founders, such as Hitchcock, Chamberlin, Alper, etc. Much like the books, your House is who you eat, live, and play IM sports with. As if extra convincing was needed, UChicago’s mascot is a Phoenix. Coincidence? We think not.
