A slightly different angle: check out Indian YA contemporary romance. Authors like Andaleeb Wajid or Sandhya Menon (though she writes primarily for the US diaspora) sometimes set stories in high school or early college. The emotional beats are similar—self-discovery, first love, social pressure—but with a younger voice that might feel fresh if you're tired of the typical 'New Adult' tropes.
The whole 'IIT/IIM romance' sub-genre is practically its own thing. Novels like 'I Too Had a Love Story' by Ravinder Singh, while not strictly only college, heavily feature that post-campus nostalgia and connection. The campus is the foundational memory for the relationship. It's less about the daily life and more about the relationship's origin story, which still hits that nostalgic note for many readers.

Honestly, I find a lot of the mainstream campus romance novels follow a very similar template: opposites attract, rival college festivals, strict parents, and a predictable third-act conflict. They can be fun comfort reads, but after a while, the tropes feel recycled. I'd love to see more that break the mold—maybe a story centered on a queer relationship on campus or one that delves into the academic rivalry aspect without the usual fluffy stereotypes. The potential is huge.
It's worth mentioning that many of these authors started their careers blogging or writing online. Their style is conversational, direct, and meant to connect quickly with readers. That accessibility is a feature, not a bug. It feels like a friend telling you a story over coffee.
That immediacy can make the emotional highs and lows hit harder. You're not admiring the prose from a distance; you're pulled into the character's headspace. For a genre centered on feeling, that intimate, unfiltered narrative voice is often the perfect tool.
