List of fictional universities

Many books and other works of fiction are set in, or refer to, fictional universities. These have been said to "feature abundantly, persistently, and increasingly in popular culture texts" and in an "array of media including novels, television, film, comic books, and video games". This list includes identifiable fictional universities or other institutions appearing to offer degree-level qualifications. Individual Oxbridge colleges (ie parts of the English universities of Oxford and Cambridge) are not included as there are separate lists of these.

Note that the red brick university in England in which Kingsley Amis sets Lucky Jim is unnamed.
