There is a large amount from both of these places so yes

In many cases yes.

as with anything, some people live up to the stereotype but some definitely don't. you will absolutely find accurate stereotypes of these people but other people will prove to be different from what you would have thought

yes

Unfortunately, yes. If you're looking for a school in which students take their academics seriously this is not it. Professors are useless for the most part and many academic departments on campus are on probation.

Absolutely, you can't take two steps on this campus without seeing a slightly chubby jersey chick wearing uggs, spandex pants, and a tank top three sizes too small for her.

not all of them mayb 1 or 2

yes uri is a party school, and you can drink just as much now that it is dry

For a portion of the student body, this stereotype is accurate. However, there are students at URI who perform as well as some of the best in the nation, and you can easily find peers with whom to compete and learn.

Completely, these students are either high 99{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the time, and/or the most shallow, self-conceited human beings to walk the face of this earth.

Having a car is definately important as public transportation in Rhode Island (RIPTA) is a joke.

Yes,

N/A
