social life

<p>What is life like on campus? What do people do for fun? Are parties big? Essentially, what will my life be like if I go here?</p>

<p>Life on campus is pretty good compared to other colleges I have visited. Both Pitt's football and basketball teams are nationally ranked so the games are fun to go to and they are only 5 bucks for tickets for students. There are also great places to shop and eat. You get on all the city buses for free with your id card so you can go downtown and all the surrounding areas for free. On campus, there aren't a lot of nice restaurants but there are a lot of quick bites like panera, subway, chiptole, starbucks, tons of pizza places and chinese so if you get sick of campus food there are other options. There is pretty much a party everywhere and every weekend. Also on Thursday nights. Guys usually have to pay 5 dollars though to get in for frats. There are on-campus frat houses up on the hill with parties and then a lot of off-campus houses have parties. A lot of people pregame in their dorm rooms with pong, etc especially in the suites. If you arent extremely loud and have the door shut, you shouldnt have a problem. There are a ton of clubs and activities that are always going on if partying isn't your thing. Dorm gyms are open 24/7 which i find to be a plus. that's about it...</p>
