Canada’s top party schools 2019

Universities where students enjoy the most hijinks per week, according to our annual survey of undergraduates
Add Maclean's(opens in a new tab)

Maclean’s surveyed more than 23,000 undergraduates across Canada in 2018 and asked them to estimate how much time they spend partying each week. We tallied the total party hours for each school and calculated a mean, based on the number of respondents. This approach ensures a small number of "super partiers"—those who say they spend more than 35 hours per week engaged in the activity—don’t skew a school’s results. The average number of hours Canadian students party per week? Just three hours. About one-third of respondents said they don’t party at all. Respondents said they spend an average of $11.80 on drinks per week and consume an average of 3.3 beverages in that time.
