Having an on-campus football team is such a crucial part of the overall college experience, but it’s not the only factor involved in determining where a particular school falls on the “fun” scale. A study done by RaveReviews.org determined where each SEC school fell on the top 50 list of most fun colleges in America.

According to the study, there were four criteria that played a part in the methodology of determining this list.

  1. Party factor (ratings were gathers from Niche.com and UniversityPrimetime.com)
  2. Outdoor factor (ratings from Lend Edu)
  3. Town factor (ratings from Best College Reviews)
  4. Rec factor (according to CollegeRanks.net)

The ratings are calculated on a scale of one to five — five being the best. So, where did your SEC school rank on the list?

If you didn’t see your team, then it must have fallen out of the top 50 according to this methodology. Unfortunately, only half of the SEC teams ended up making the list.
