Northwestern University - NU Greek Life Reviews

NU greek life is an absolute joke compared to state schools

It’s not super hard to be in any Greek house. You just need to be a major suck up. Parties are insanely selective and not typically very fun. However, if you don’t go Greek there’s no chance of having a social life here. Greeks are not very attractive but better than non-Greeks (no one is very hot here). A lot of frat guys reek desperation and I think there are more frat guys than srat girls. If you’re at all social, focus on rush right when you get here freshman year. People say that Greek life doesn’t matter here but it’s a huge lie. Don’t get forced into a house you don’t like and don’t end up as a GDI. Good Luck!

sae was the only good frat.

Partying here is nothing crazy, but there's almost always stuff to do if you are rushing/have joined. If you aren't in Greek life it can be hard to find stuff to do, especially in the Winter

Frats are decent, guys in it are decent people as well. Parties are overly selective after rush, though, and there have been some recent issues such as SAE

More fun than you would expect from a nerdy school like Northwestern. Hazing is nothing compared to state schools. Most of the social life on campus revolves around Greek life.
