# Which Oregon colleges are churning out startup founders? AngelList knows

Remember back when we ran that survey of the [schools that had the most impact on the Portland startup scene](http://siliconflorist.com/2012/02/07/school-portland-startup-cred/ "Which school has the most Portland startup cred?")? Well, now there’s something a little more empirical.

AngelList—arguably the best thing going for early stage startups seeking funding—has released lists of colleges and universities that appear in founder profiles. How did Oregon schools fare?

In descending order of current impact (ranked by number of startups):

1. [Oregon](http://angel.co/university-of-oregon-1 "Oregon") (22)
2. [Reed](http://angel.co/reed-college-1 "Reed") (9)
3. [Oregon State](http://angel.co/oregon-state-university "Oregon State") (5)
