The University of Chicago is one of the best places I've ever been. Granted, only about 10% of us are in Greek life, there is a solid group of people who go out and party very hard. Those same people are Rhodes Scholars, future Nobel Prize winners and word leaders. The social scene is tight-knit, but with enough different pockets to find a new crowd if necessary.As for the academics, it is as hard as you make it. There is an unbelievable amount of reading assigned, but that doesn't mean you actually have to do the readings. If you are a student who has to do all of the assigned work in order to do well in a class (i.e. study a lot to maintain good grades), you will probably hate the U of C. If you have coasted through school and did well enough to get in, you will have to up your game a bit but you will probably be able to coast here too.
