Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Towson is, without a doubt, a bar school with a great nightlife. If a student wants, he or she can find something to do just about every single night of the week. In fact, around campus, you will see promotions for clubs or bars just about every day of the week. Students have their favorite bars, whether it is uptown or downtown. What makes Towson’s nightlife so great is that there are so many different bars to choose from that the scene does not get old too soon, as it does at many other colleges. You can easily get away with pre-gaming with friends in your room, and the uptown bars are within walking distance from campus.

Students agree that the nightlife in Towson is outstanding. There is so much to do and somewhere to go every night. There are tremendous parties, but they tend to be held more often when the weather is nice. Since Towson’s weather lacks many warm nights, the bar scene happens to be more frequented than the house-party scene.

SO MUCH TO DO

There is so much to do around Towson. There are hookah bars, regular bars, clubs downtown, house parties, frat parties, and plenty of resturants! My favorites are Dubai and Sonar, some clubs in downtown Baltimore but Sonar gets pretty wild and isn't a very diverse crowd. There is also the Baltimore Harbor which has a mall, and many resturants and its such a nice place to be at night time. Don't take a cab anywhere unless you like to waste money. Try to take a city bus or get a ride with someone, cabs are so expensive.. one time we spent $45 on a cab just going to a party.. luckily we caught a ride back with some friends. Morgan State and Johns Hopkins always seem to have parties or events going on and those schools are less than 15 mins from Towson. Overall nightlife is excellent.

Every Week There's a Party

Every Thursday evening, my dorm is empty due to people leaving for the clubs or going to parties at other student's dorms.
