Though there is the stereotype of UNH parties, UNH is a great state school that should be best known for its dedicated professors and incredible research opportunities.

Probably business and engineering....it really has a lot more to offer!

When thinking of the University of New Hampshire, what comes to mind is partying. UNH students have friends visit expecting to be shown a good time. Greek life at UNH largely impacts the party scene. The fraternities are often a place people go to, whether as a guest or to join, for parties. Although the university is making an attempt to rid UNH of the party school reputation, I feel it has already spent too much time known as that making it difficult to change people's views of it as a "party school".

Honestly, most of the students here know UNH for its social life. My freshman year UNH was rated the 7th largest party school by the Princeton Review. However, we also have a lot of school pride and have wonderful athletic programs! Academically, we have the facilities and the staff to become very successful students, it's all a matter of how hard you want to try as a student. I would say that UNH is best known for its opportunities. If there is something you are looking to do, UNH most likely has it!
