Hey guys im new to the forums but seeing as I plan on applying to schools next fall I have a couple questions to those that have some knowledge on RPI


How is campus life at this schools. Is this a commuter school because at a commuter school i have heard the weekends are dead on the campus. Are there usually events going on and stuff to do if i plan on dorming there.
How are the people. I say this just because of what many people say about these schools but are the guys at these places really anti social and stay in their dorms playing video games? And though there are obviously more guys than girls, is it that bad or is there a decent amount.
Lastly if a social, athletic guy wants to have a good time and not have to go knocking on peoples dorm rooms to hang out, is this likely?


I know im making this school sound bad but im just basing my thoughts on reviews i have previously heard. The reason for me looking into this school is for their top notch engineering programs and division 3 athletics.

Thanks
