Not totally sure what you’re asking for, but maybe you’d like the Dead Poets Society.

Orange County, Animal House, Van Wilder, College, Legally Blonde, Accepted, College Road Trip, The Rules of Attraction,...

To name a few.

School ties, animal house. I’m trying to think of more, but nothing is coming.

There are 2 entertaining Notre Dame sports movies….. one starring R.Reagan, of course, Knute Rockne, All American in 1940…...and then there is “Rudy”.

Search for ‘university’ in the ‘plot sections’ of imdb.com and you’ll get more than 100 hits.

Proof and It’s My Turn, like Good Will Hunting, feature mathematicians.

Wonder Boys is set at some loosely-defined university in Pittsburgh.

Both Love Story and The Paper Chase appear to be set at Harvard, if I recall correctly.
