University of North Dakota Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at University of North Dakota accurate?

Julie

In a way rich kids is right, except a good majority of people have student loans, not everyone is really smart, and Grand Forks is big for ND but in the grand scheme of things its a small town.

KC

Yes

Johnson

NO. not everyone on the UND campus drinks. Not all people who attend UND make lots of money. While some degrees are easier than others, I wouldn't call college easy.

Karen

???

Laura

It is true that there is a lot of social drinking associated with the school and it's students, but I know many students who are very serious about thier education. As for the classes not being challenging, I have not found that to be so in most classes. When I got here I was pleasantly surprised by the level of work expected from me in my classes.

Cassie

I believe that there is a large group of students who do contribute to the school and the community on a regular basis, yet there are kids who never even try.

Andy

No, not at all, you'll find conservative people and you'll find people who love partying. However, everyone work fine together, and there is something to do for each person. That there is nothing to do here is a complete lie, there's actually too much to do, and too little time.

Laura

not for the entire student body. many drink, but many choose not to. There are many new non-alcohol late night events programmed to curb binge drinking.

Ryan

for some but much of the student body drinks responsibly from my experiences
