Nightlife/Party Scene at Pitt?

<p>Before you attack me as another high schooler basing his college decision off a school's party reputation, note that after visiting the campus of Pitt and attending a class I decided it was the school for me, I'm only looking to learn more about the school from the perspective of current students.
My question is what the average weekend at main campus is like, what are the frat parties like and the general party scene.
Thank you.</p>

<p>I would also like to know about this.</p>

<p>Tons of Parties,

Police don’t really care, only know one person who got an underage</p>

<p>freshman mainly go to frat parties, unless they have upperclassmen friends who have parties off campus. sophomore year some people still go to frats but there’s also a lot of off campus parties. generally by junior year it’s no frats and then you turn 21 and there are around 6 bars in oakland right around campus and people also go to southside (another area of the city nearby) that has a lot of bars. I wouldn’t call it a party school like penn state but if you want to go out there’s always something to do. also people go out on thursday a lot, some frats are open</p>
