The school is in a small residential neighborhood so clubs/bars locally apart from a couple pubs. On campus there are some small parties and 2-3 large parties a year, but it is also pretty easy to go to haverford, swarthmore, and to some extent UPenn for parties by bus (Free: Haverford and Swat) or by train (~$5 to UPenn). It also is about a $5 cab fare to Villanova.
