9 Types of College Stereotypes

What is a College Stereotype?

College stereotypes are almost like the different groups you fit into high school but much more advance. We all know one person who fits into each of these 9 different stereotypical groups. What would College truly be like with out these different groups?

1. The Athletes

The guys who are mainly here for their scholarship for sports and stick together. These guys are usually known for sitting in the back of the class watching ESPN. Most of the time they have no idea what we are even talking about.

2. The Ones who are almost always high


Always coming into class smelling like weed and clearly high af. They usually take college for granted because they can get away with it. Let's not forget how they like to spray themselves twice with Axe because they think it works.

3. Party People or Drinkers


Thirsty thursday is their weekly holiday they love to celebrate. They can be seen hanging out in an apartment playing beer pong or at the closest night club and taking a million photos no one cares about.

4. The Serious Ones


Students like these are usually the ones staying up late to study and finish up essays they've had looked at a hundred times. They are in college to get a degree and learn something. I bet if you asked them what the lesson was about a month ago, they'd remember.

5. Students who really just don't care


The ones who get to class late and end up on their computer during a class. Their outfit is effortless and most likely would rather be anywhere else but school. They probably didn't even know they had required reading or books to buy.

6. The Fashionista


The dress to impress girls are the ones we call "intimidating" because they are like the serious ones but dressed formally. They take extra effort in looking professional and smart. They have the best clothes and fashion sense.

7. The Ones who need more clothes


Let's be honest, we all know those girls who make it so obvious that they are dressed to get the guys attention. They wear short shorts, tank tops, and extra padded bras to emphasize their chest. It is how they show that they are every guys "dream girl".

8. The Introverts


These guys are usually known for caring headphones around them everywhere, going to class, to the cafe or school events. They like to sit in the back of the class and follow the lecture slides. They try to avoid any study groups and class activities, you may even spot them in the library.

9. Those students who feel the need to be campus-wide known


This kid is that almost annoying one who feels the need to be loved by everyone including the professors. They enjoy knowing everything about everyone and everything. They are loud, obnoxious and love attention.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
