A College of Magics, by Caroline Stevermer. YA/fantasy, has a little romantic feeling as a minor element near the end, but the main focus is academia, magic, and politics. Our heroine is decisive and determined, and the most prominent secondary character is a friend she makes in school, who accompanies her on the political mission that occupies the second part of the book.
fantasy with very little romance
