Princeton Review Unveils Nation’s Top 20 Party Schools
13 years ago

One of the two newest Big 12 members announces its presence with authority. West Virginia is coming in strong in the Princeton Review’s latest edition of the nation’s Top 20 Party Schools, representing the top party school. The list was compiled based on surveys from 122,000 students in their final year of school.

A few observations:

– The Midwest is coming in hot at the top, surprisingly.
– No schools from Arizona?
– My geography knowledge is a little shaky, but only one school from west of Iowa? And it’s UC Santa Barbara?
– Five SEC schools. Expected.
– Where the shit is BYU? I heard those guys are into all kinds of weird shit.
– The Big 12 is lacking, only holding down two spots. Same with the ACC.
– University of Maine in Orono. I saw that comin’ from a mile away.

Here’s the list:

1. West Virginia University, Morgantown
2. University of Iowa, Iowa City
3. Ohio University, Athens
4. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
5. University of Georgia, Athens
6. University of Florida, Gainesville
7. University of California-Santa Barbara
8. Florida State University, Tallahassee
9. Miami University of Ohio, Oxford
10. Syracuse University, Syracuse, N.Y.
11. Penn State University, University Park, Pa.
12. DePauw University, Greencastle, Ind.
13. University of Wisconsin-Madison
14. University of Mississippi
15. University of Texas-Austin
16. University of Maryland, College Park
17. University of South Carolina, Columbia
18. James Madison University, Harrisonburg Va.
19. University of Maine, Orono
20. University of Tennessee, Knoxville

      This is stupid, Arizona partys pretty damn hard. No more small time gay GDI colleges making the top 20 or 25. I say TFM makes their own list.

      Dorn, Bacon, and/ or Intern are you up for this?

      ^^The only schools that are small are Maine and DePauw. All the others have roughly 20,000 or more.

    AHA a BYU joke, that hasn’t been over played. Anyway it’s kind of funny to not see GSU, now they have nothing to brag about except multiple STDs. Fuck the Mountaineers

      West Virginia? Man those fuckers know how to party, with the incest and whatnot.

      Even though it is a bunch of fucking yanks, they do have their show of southern fraternities and a lot of their sororities are southern. Besides, I think these rankings are based off of how many people party, yes that includes GDIs. We all know if this was based off of solely Greek parties, you’d have ‘Bama up near the top.

      JMU… Really? I feel like they came to visit us quite a lot for having such a hot social scene. Then again I admit ignorance. I’ve never felt any need to go rage in Harrisonburg.

      You consider Jmu the south? i used to go to high school in harrisonburg before i moved to the southeast, while i love virginia and the founding fathers, that working class shitter of mediocrity is one of the least frat nor livable places around

    Half of these schools are in the middle of nowhere and “partying” for them is sitting in the parking lot of walmart drinking natty light. oooh, sign me up.

      Yeah, I forgot that Tallahassee is such a vibrant fucking metropolis. I’d be equally butthurt too if this list left off my campus that’s best known for retards that speak, dress, and look like the cast of Duck Dynasty who spend their days walking through Lake Talqin fantasizing about Bobby Bowden sitting on their face. FRAT.

      Obviously the geed has never been to Tallahassee. Take a trip here asshole, doesn’t matter the day, there’s always something here. Always. And the rednecks of north Florida don’t come around us. Fucking geed.

    Where the fuck is bama? don’t go there, but have visited and it throws a hell of a party.

      I go to Bama and I can confirm we do just fine. Sure we don’t party in sweatpants and ratty fucking t shirts like WVU do but we get the job done with a little more class.

      I think they’re actually kidding by not putting Alabama in the top ten. I’m assuming they didn’t see us after our “little trip” to New Orleans in January…

      Yeah I go to Bama but I wish I went to the University of Maine – Orono Campus. Those guys are frat.

      WVU does not need a national championship to party, the do not even need a reason for arson they just fucking do it

      It’s “party” schools. Not Greek schools. All these listed have a huge GDI population who have their gay ass little GDI parties. Red Bull concerts, Axe concerts, etc. Gay shit. Alabama doesn’t party outside of the Greek system.

      “All these listed have a huge GDI population who have their gay ass little GDI parties.”

      Exactly. Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina, Texas-Austin, Miami OH, and ESPECIALLY Ole Miss define the word “geed.”

      Shiny objects.

      “Shiny objects?” Seriously? Geed, you are potentially mentally handicapped. Let me explain how this works. When people talk about “all those schools” they really mean “most of those schools.” Stop being pedantic.

      THE STATE OF IOWA SUCKS, BUT THE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. the university of iowa party hard, because 70% of the students are from illinois and the suburbs of Chicago.
