I'm looking for a movie involving how hard it is to get into college and how great it is to go to college. Preferably a drama. (Not a 'stupid comedy' like "Accepted")
I don't have a specific movie in mind, but I'm looking for ideas. If you've seen any that sound similar, please let me know!

Check out 1984's 'Oxford Blues' with Rob Lowe. Excellent college drama. Also, an older movie starring Robbie Benson called 'One On One' about how he gets into college, deals with college and I won't spoil the rest. Both very highly rated when they were released, but both since forgotten. Like treasures! ;-)

Almost all of them I think of are comedies. Here are a few that are dramas:
With Honors
Wonder Boys
School Daze
Then there is:
How I Got Into College (it's a comedy but does explore and makes fun of the difficult admissions process).

Orange County is about trying to get into college.
PCU is about a Pre-freshmen touring campus
Rudy is a good college movie if you like sports
Mona Lisa Smile involves women in college
