"party school academically"?!?
What an oxymoron. You are either going to hit the books, study and cram....or not.
By God's grace, I was the guy out there front-running ' setting the curve', more than once. Cheating never entered the equation, frat-boy. I did it the olf-fashioned way: 'I earned it!.
Dartmouth is the right answer. Top ranked school, Ivy League, ranked 1st in undergraduate teacher, top 5 in highest salary after graduation.
But BOY do they party hard up there...
ranked in the top 10 actually, but keep in mind us news rankings totally shaft public schools/the criteria they use hurts public schools a lot. like the other poster said, ucsb is great in engineering (especially chemical and i think material if i am not mistaken) and marine science.
So you're gonna say the 17th best public school is not strong academically????
And it's actually ranked 2nd based on VALUE behind Virginia.
It's 53rd overall in the nation including private schools. I hate to break it to you and you can look up the stats, but you pretty much can't get in without a 1300+ and above a 4.2 unless you're a minority or an athlete.
I bet your response, if you actually do respond: "Oh well I got a 5.2 and a 1590 SAT, went to a top-10 school, and make $150k right outta college."
But you don't and you're not cool because you're a typical letsrunner. Congrats.
And yes, it is a pretty good party school.
CU public ivy
Doesn't all this depend on the OP's major?
OP what are you going to major in?
UGA. #1 Party school as rate by the Princeton Review.
If someone could also tell me which of these schools has the hottest guys that be great!
The boys at Arizona State are pretty hot. Dumb, but hot.

And also was the inspiration for Animal House.
lots to choose from wrote:
Duke - amazing academics, but everybody knows how to have fun
everyone from Duke parties at UNC...
Syracuse!!!
the rankings can't be taken too seriously. think about it...what criteria are they using for ranking, how accurately can the outcomes be measured, and how is this information aggregated to produce a single ranking?
ranking, be it schools, hospitals etc. is notoriously inaccurate and fraught with difficulty.
with that said, UVM is a good school and the students definitely know how to party.
Florida by far. I can't think of one party at UF where someone didn't either bring black hookers, a donkey, blond bimbo sorority girls, or any host of hoseables that every young male dreams of taking down while heavily intoxicated.
Junior colleges typically offer a fine, low cost education, and an opportunity to blow alcohol readings that are higher than the average GPA.
oh im sry, my bad. i was looking at this
http://www.kiplinger.com/magazine/archives/best-values-in-public-colleges-2011.html
were 2nd for overal value (price,academics,ect)
still 17th isnt bad though
however florida is one of the top medical colleges in the country, it matters what you are going for, but a medical degree from UF will get u a long way
Wisconsin with out a doubt. Consistently a top 10 party school and the academics are top notch. Most Fortune 500 CEO's out of any university in the U.S.
Tulane University If you can't have fun in Big Easy, you don't like fun.
