What is the stereotype of students at Ball State University? Is this stereotype accurate?

The stereotype at Ball State is that the students are ranked lower than the students at Indiana University or Purdue. This stereotype is not accurate at all. Ball State is its own successful community with thriving students.

Ball State has a party school reputation, but that has decreased lately. You can't really describe everyone at Ball State in a few words, because there are so many unique people here.

Being in the Architecture Program there is absolutely a stereo type, and i see it first hand. Being in the program people automatically assume you spend all your time working in studio, but actually we do work a lot but its something we want to do so its not hard work to an architecture student. We have just as much fun as anyone else! In general i don't think Ball State students have a general stereo type because there are so many different forms of studying and it all seems to collaborate nicely.

Ball date student are often considered Partyers or Frat kids and those kind of things. Although there are some of them on campus the majority are not. The campus is a 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} dry campus and they have a zero tolerance policy for anything related to such activities. Most Ball State students are actually very dedicated and hard working students who enjoy what they are doing.

Ball State has a reputation as a "party school." I think there is some truth to this because I see drunk kids every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights.

One of the main stereotypes of the students at Ball State University is that they are "partyers". The students are known for throwing a lot of parties and a lot of underage drinking going on. As far as I have experienced, there are quite a few students that are like that. A lot of students like to go out and party and get stoned as well. However, I have met quite a few students that work really hard and focus on schoolwork more than the partying scene.

Laid back is the stereotype. If you go to IU or PU and go out girls are always in heels and dresses, here its nice and casual to just where jeans. I feel the environment is more relaxed then up tight trying to play jersey shores. It also depends who you hang around with.
