True, but that's not exactly what I was getting at.

If you read the Wikipedia article for each university, you'll find the answer in the first paragraph.

Oh hi, DC! (Aaand, you're still not there. Look at the location of the schools.)

Seriously, there's too much in common between those three! Okay, with hint...universities whose respective cities were named after the type of school they were originally.
