Carnegie Mellon is considered to be an academic school HOWEVER, if you attend Carnegie Mellon and want to go out to parties/clubs, the University of Pittsburgh is right next to Carnegie Mellon, and they tend to have more parties. The University of Pittsburgh is not a “party school”, but the students do like to go out, so if you want to party you can, if not, Carnegie Mellon is a great academic school.

Carnegie Mellon is a great school.
