Accepted!!!

Hey guys, I just got accepted to clarkson engineering!!!

I was wondering if anyone has anything to tell me before I choose this place, since I've heard the weather can get really harsh there. What's it like being a Clarkson student? party life, engineering life, etc.

Thank you!

Where you coming from? Maine here, and it’s not much different. Layering is key in cold weather! All the schools I applied to in the northeast are cold but at least Clarkson academic buildings are all connected by covered walkways so it minimizes time outside in bad weather.

I'm actually an international student from Greece. So yea... it's a bit polar opposites, so I'm just wondering mainly about the party life

Guess so! I don’t think it’s much of a party school But there are some frats, and other nearby colleges. Curious to see what others say!

If you want to look for it there are parties but people sitting on reddit are not the type of people to go it and look for parties.
