For instance, if you're Muslim would you go to a Jesuit college (like Boston College)? Or if you're an Atheist, would you go to a Jewish college (like Brandeis)? (Brandeis is secular but 55% Jewish)

If I had a full ride otherwise no.
I like to be around people who have different beliefs then I do, but I would want to go to school in California so I wouldn't be too far from friends and family. I also like to go to liberal schools.

I'd go anywhere I could get the best education, though fortunately I was able to go to Jewish schools and my children are in Jewish schools. However, I have Jewish friends who HAVE sent their kids to a certain xtian oriented school which is well known for it's academics- they just maintain a Jewish home and be certain there children understand why they are there. Even though I could handle it (as an adult who has given a pretty fair study to most theologies and decided I quite like the one I was born to), I can't imagine I would send my KIDS to a non-Jewish school, though. And my husband, I am certain, wouldn't even entertain the thought theoretically. That's just from my perspective- there is no need to send them elsewhere as I live in an area with several Jewish institutions to choose from. The other parents i mentioned don't have as many options.

I would not, some of the denominations teach things that are completely against what the Bible says. I am just talking about amongst those who are of the Christian faith. I would not go at all to a college that is of a different faith altogether. Of course if the college does not back any belief I would not have a problem going there.

I am Baptist and went to a Presbyterian college. Same religion, different denomination. Your question and examples don't match up. Denominations are variations within a particular religion. You are asking people if they would go to a college that was of a different RELIGION, not denomination.

Maybe take a few classes here and there to learn more about specific aspects of that religion but, otherwise, no.

nope. I went to BYU and that would still be my first choice. Back then, my second choice was OSU (Ohio).

Absolutely not.......

It would drive me insane to hear lies being taught.
I would only go to a Christian college.
