University of Georgia Top Questions

Partyers? Frat boys and sorority girls? Very accurate. There's lots of drinking downtown at bars, and there's a big Greek society in Athens, but it's not limited to just those types of people.

To an extent. UGA is a big party school, and a lot of students take their social calendars much more seriously than their academic goals.

Saying we don't party would be a huge lie. Almost everyone parties, but the majority of us also know when to be serious. We work hard so that we can party hard. Of course there are going to be students who get caught up in the party scene & don't put any effort into school, but they don't stick around for too long. In terms of the "clone" thing, this generates from the fact that a large majority of the girls here look similar- expect to see a lot of skinny, tall, tan blondes. But that in no way makes all the girls the same kind of person. We all have our different interests, backgrounds, and experiences.

We work hard AND have fun!

Absolutely.... we've got the perfect balance.

for the most part; i am not a big drinker but still have a pretty good time downtown

There are plenty here, but if you look in the right places there are plenty of dececnt people.

yes, the diversity is minimal yes, frat boys/sorority girls everywhere you turn

A lot of UGA is Greek and a lot of people party, but I have friends that do neither of these and love UGA as much as I do.

This definitely isn't true. UGA has so many other things to offer.
