10 Types Of Students You’ll Meet On Campus

While in college, you’ll encounter people in every capacity, from classrooms to parties to students in the cafeteria line. Here are 10 types of students you’ll meet on campus.

1. The Activist

This person is the one who’s always standing up for the latest cause. Whether it’s for lowered tuition or better professors, you know this student will probably be involved in politics in the future.

2. The Slacker

Everyone knows and strongly dislikes this person. They do the bare minimum and make others wonder why they’re in college in the first place.

3. The Devoted Student

This person is solely dedicated to school and nothing else. You see them in the classroom and library, but it’s very rare you see them in a social setting.

4. The Sorority Girl

She’s very involved in her sorority, and you constantly see her wearing her letters and hanging out with her “sisters.” Although they have a stereotype for partying, they do a lot for the community.

5. The Frat Boy

This is usually a similar situation to the sorority girl, but in a masculine form (and more emphasis on partying).

6. The “I Don’t Need College” Student

This is the person who usually comes from a wealthy background and is in college just because! They do graduate, but don’t feel the pressure of making sure they have a financially stable job after school is over.

7. The One That Shows Up Only On Test Day

You only see this person during midterms and finals, and you wonder where they came from in the first place.

9. The Athlete

This person is the one everyone knows on campus, because they’re the star. Their schedule goes as follows: workout, school, workout, repeat.

10. The Career Student

This is the student that’s been there forever, but you’re applauding them on their commitment to finish.
