The social life at Penn is what you make of it. Same with Cornell. For guys it can be a tad greek centric if you want it to be (and nearly 1/2 of the guys do). Cornell has a large greek culture too. The one great thing about Penn is that while it has a city, it still has a great campus culture. Penn, like Cornell has a large number of upper classmen living off campus. Penn is lucky that most of the off campus housing is very close to campus, and only in the surrounding areas. The thing that separates Penn from Cornell is the availability of center city with restaurants, clubs, shows, Philly sports teams, and all the other perks of a city.
