Dartmouth takes pride in their student organizations. Whether students participate in research work, student government, or one of their famous religious and spiritual groups, the classroom is only one aspect of the Dartmouth experience.
The academic prestige that Dartmouth is known for is grouped into specific learning areas such as the Thayer School of Engineering, Tuck School of Business, or the Geisel School of Medicine. Dartmouth is an ivy league school, in addition to their competitive varsity athletic program, the school also offers intramural and other outdoor programs for their luckily accepted students.
The campus life includes a country club located in Hanover for a rich and cultural social life. The etiquette of students is expected to be socially acceptable for their high class and prestigious culture. New Hampshire is the perfect state for students to enjoy skiing and also horse riding. Dartmouth has a program known as the Morton Farm Riding Center, where those who enjoy horseback riding can enjoy trails and beautiful scenery. Night life is another aspect of socializing for the Moose, and they frequent local bars and restaurants in Hanover such as the famous 'Taylor's Restaurant'.
Despite some students who say they didn't enjoy the town of Hanover as much as they enjoyed on-campus activities at Dartmouth, all students can agree the faculty, teachers, athletics, and fellow colleagues assure them that they made the right decision to attend Dartmouth.
