College of Magics by Caroline Stevermer

For those who want something more sophisticated than Harry Potter, check out this book. Faris Nallaneen has been sent to Greenlaw College by her uncle to keep her out of trouble until she takes over as duchess of Galazon when she comes of age. Even though she is skeptical about the supposed magic that is taught at Greenlaw, she and her friend Jane get caught up in a web of political intrigue and magic that almost costs them their lives.
