University of Rochester - UR Greek Life Reviews

It’s the best you’re gonna get in the rochester area. people whine about it on here but if you want amazing Greek life go to Syracuse. Greek life here is just about 75% of the less socially awkward students of the school distributed into about 7 decent greek orgs, the rest of the orgs are as socially awkward as the rest of the students with the exception of the athletes. Just find where you fit in and you won’t feel the need to come here and complain.

Hi

Don’t trust 85% of the reviews here. Most reviews are just salty, cynical people who take themselves too seriously. Fact of the matter is, this is a rather small liberal arts college where the main focus is to make the most use of your four/five years here, not to squander them away. Only 25% of the student body is in Greek life. That being said, the past few SA Gov Presidents were in Greek Life and many people that go on to do things like publish research papers or end up working at places like IBM, Deloitte, or the UN/US Gov. were in Greek Life. Use your own common sense and determine the social scene for yourself. You should only come here for people to spill the half-true tea.

Rochester is pretty middle of the pack. Greek life is definitely strong with some great organizations, but chapters definitely aren't as large as at other schools.

Better that RIT

Not to big of a presence but enough
