Want to See A Map That Shows Where Schools From College Movies Are Located? Okay Here Ya Go.

by Last Updated

From the way this map from eCollegeFinder tells it, there are 0 worthwhile colleges located in the Midwest United States. Yep, if you live in Idaho, North/South Dakota, or any of those other states whose names I should look up but don’t care enough to do so, there is a chance that there are 0 colleges in your state and that you’re just as illiterate as Floyd Mayweather.

Of course, all these schools are fictional. But it’s not like anyone actually wants to go to the University of North Dakota…if that’s even a real place.

Clearly, Arizona has the most fake-schools as evidenced by this list from eCollegeFinder:
