Chatoyant College by Clare K. R. Miller

Corrie, Edie, and Dawn are excited, nervous, curious, and, well, lots of other emotions about their first semester at Chatoyant College.  They know it’s going to be a weird few months: they’ve left their familiar high school existences for something completely new, their college is the only one in the United States with a magic program, and it comes complete with its own forbidden forest and mysterious weather.  What they’re not expecting is the strange (and familiar) people they’ll meet, the intricate politics of college life, and new revelations about themselves.
