Hi everyone, I've heard a lot about the Big 10 schools and I know they have a reputation academically and in athletics, but I'm a bit lost. I'm looking for a comprehensive list of all the Big 10 schools so that I can start my research. Can anyone help me out here? Thanks!
Sure, happy to help! There are 14 universities that collectively form the Big Ten Conference, not 10 as the name might imply. The Big Ten schools are:
1. University of Illinois
2. Indiana University
3. University of Iowa
4. University of Maryland
5. University of Michigan
6. Michigan State University
7. University of Minnesota
8. University of Nebraska
9. Northwestern University
10. Ohio State University
11. Pennsylvania State University (Penn State)
12. Purdue University
13. Rutgers University
14. University of Wisconsin
These universities are committed to providing high-quality education and have a strong athletics culture. They participate in the NCAA's Division I, with men's and women's teams in several sports. Each institution is unique, so I would recommend researching each one to find the best fit for your academic and extracurricular interests. Good luck!
