University with so much natural beauty

University Bethlehem Pennsylvania
heading over to Pennsylvania we arrive
at Lehigh University where things
seemingly never stop students describe
the environment as being quote extremely
hard-working both academically and
socially they work hard and have fun
doing it Greek life is a big presence on
campus and there’s no shortage of
opportunities to cut loose and over
indulge but the student body also prides
itself on its many alcohol and drug free
events which means that you can still
socialise and embrace the party
atmosphere without feeling pressure to
consume any substances some schools have
a narrow-minded approach to partying but
not Lee hi sure it’s a party school but
more importantly it’s a school with many
diverse social opportunities number 8
Colgate University Hamilton New York
this relatively small campus in the
state of New York has a great academic
reputation in no small part thanks to
the dedicated and often praised faculty
a
course studying and higher learning art
all this liberal arts school is known
for Greek life is pretty
all-encompassing on campus and the
amount of partying that goes down is
allegedly so intense that it’s caused
tension between students in the
administration in recent years bringing
about certain changes that being said
most of these initiatives simply aim to
offer more diverse activities and you
can rest assured that they are still
partying far harder than most number
seven the University of Colorado Boulder
Boulder Colorado this remarkable
university nestled in the bustling
college town of Boulder boasts
impressive alumni and the sort of
programs and facilities to keep on
producing more of them its credentials
are unquestionable and proving that a
single University apparently can do it
all the same applies to their reputation
as a party school as a member of the
student body you’re never at a loss for
something to do when you feel the need
to cut loose a college town in the
classic sense Boulder weekends feel like
one big party but the social scene here
is far from one note when you don’t feel
like partying there are tons of outdoor
alternatives number six the University
of Delaware Newmark Delaware Wayne and
Garth might be at a loss of what to do
in Delaware but the students of the
University of Delaware certainly aren’t
the school is renowned for its hard
partying ways between Greek life special
events and local house parties those
looking to get wild rarely need to look
far in search of entertainment of course
this doesn’t mean that partying is
all-encompassing
or impossible to avoid for those who
prefer a quieter sort of social activity
the university regularly hosts movie
nights and there are plenty of campus
clubs for people with specific interests
number 5 the University of
wisconsin-madison Madison Wisconsin
students at wisconsin-madison are a
studious bunch known to keep their noses
buried in books Monday through Friday
but come the weekend they more than make
up for it
be it on or off campus the weekend is
dedicated to having fun there are plenty
of parties to attend as well as special
events but it’s their dedication to
tailgating before games that really sets
this student body apart from the pack
that being said if you’re not into
sports you can always immerse yourself
in the local bar club scene but really
you haven’t experienced
wisconsin-madison
until you’ve been to one of their house
parties number four Syracuse University
Syracuse New York if you’ve ever been to
Colgate University and thought to
yourself that that must be the hardest
partying school in New York State you’d
be wrong and that’s saying a whole lot
at the heart of this drive to party is
one very powerful force school spirit
and at Syracuse University they have got
it in spades the campus has been
described as feeling electric with the
party atmosphere reaching a fever pitch
on any given game day sports fans are
not many students will be heading to a
bar or frat house come evening time
because it’s Syracuse the party never
really stops if you know where to look
for it
number three Bucknell University
Lewisburg Pennsylvania at this
Pennsylvania University it’s estimated
that roughly half of all students
participate in fraternities or
sororities given the Greek lights
well-documented penchant for partying
across the nation this translates into a
serious party scene this student body is
clearly committed to the task coming out
to party rain or shine oddly enough
while most universities go hard on the
weekend it’s actually Wednesday nights
that are the stuff of legend at Bucknell
we can’t imagine that Thursday mornings
are very fun but hey you don’t crack the
top three party schools in America
without losing some sleep number two
West Virginia University Morgantown West
Virginia at West Virginia University
people are super social at West Virginia
University school spirit is incredibly
high at West Virginia you the question
you going downtown tonight is likely to
be overheard every day
translation West Virginia University is
the perfect storm to be a mecca of
partying campus life and Mountaineer
pride are enough to keep your social
calendar full but the bar and club lined
High Street in downtown Morgantown
offers a whole other layer of partying
opportunities from the most intense
tailgates you’ve ever experienced to the
seemingly never-ending series of student
events WV you can provide a veritable
gauntlet of partying for those looking
to get wild before we unveil our number

number one Tulane University New Orleans
Louisiana
Tulane might not be a household name for
viewers outside of the United States but
in America or at least in Louisiana its
earned itself a reputation as the
hardest partying school in the country
and considering the fact it’s situated
in New Orleans an iconic party city we
can’t really say we’re surprised it’s
widely accepted that the school’s
unofficial motto is work hard play hard
with up to 45% of students participating
in the raucous Greek life on campus and
even more generally embracing the active
nightlife as one student put it at
Tulane quote they don’t just get drunk
they party with a purpose do you agree
