College Magazine created the list of the Top 10 Colleges For Beach Lovers, and Monmouth University claimed a spot!

My alma mater came in at #7 on the list. College Magazine had this to say about MU:

Only a mile from the Jersey Shore, Monmouth University nestles itself in West Long Branch, New Jersey. Monmouth’s coed sailing club dominates the water, often placing in the single-digits among other university sailing clubs. You’ll find these bad boys in the water practicing for their Oceanport regattas, about five to eight per semester. Talk about an extra-curricular activity. Aside from the recreation within the water, studies take place in the water as well. The Marine and Environmental Biology and Policy program offers students the chance to take their studies to tropical sights such as the Bahamas in order to conduct research. Sign us up!

Rounding out the list are:

10. Palm Beach Atlantic, West Palm Beach, Florida
9. Pepperdine University, Malibu, California
8. University of Hawaii at Manoa, Hawaii
6. University of California, San Diego, California
5. Point Loma Nazarene University, San Diego, California
