Campus Pride is a nationally recognized organization dedicated to making campuses more LGBT-friendly. The organization's annual Campus Pride Index is based on a set of 50 questions that correspond to eight different LGBT-friendly factors.

The Princeton Review also ranks the best (and worst) campuses for LGBT students each year, but its results are based on a survey of 126,000 random students at 378 top colleges. Colleges come to the Campus Pride Index and work with the organization to form a group of faculty and students, LGBT people included, to rate their school by the index's factors.

Below, in no particular order, are the top schools from the Campus Pride Index's most recent list and some of the unique student groups and organizations they offer. BuzzFeed also reached out to students at the various campuses for their thoughts.
