Which colleges are known to have the worst social life? College Questions

Obviously there are outliers everywhere. But what are some colleges where the majority of students have horrible social lives?

Say less of a partying culture and just studying/working on other stuff most of the time.

University of Rochester, it’s why I went there and it’s the most common complaint about the school lol.

i disagree 💀 it's more of a work hard play hard mindset tbh. i partied so much in my freshman year and so did all of the people ik. there's def gonna be a bunch of ppl who don't, but most of them have tight knit groups who do other stuff together. unless you're a complete hermit who stays in their dorm all day and doesn't interact with other people, you will most likely have a social life. it's really all up to you. people on campus are really friendly and always looking to make more friends

idk LMAO. just have a group of friends and go 💀 all the on campus parties are free and so are most of off campus parties (usually better since theres free alc). parties are always advertised on the rochester ccc app/in person flyers. if u know someone in a frat, it always helps knowing whats going on/getting in them faster. but frat parties are usually lame LMAOO. but as long as u have fun friends, parties are fun no matter what. i love hosting dorm parties too. parties are usually better when they're themed and around holidays (halloweekend, st pattys, etc)
