The Best College Movies Of All Time
Over 2,000 movie fans have come together to cast their votes for the best college movies ever made. From Animal House and Old School to The Social Network and 21 Jump Street, these are the films that capture what it means to be a student on campus: from wild parties and all-nighters cramming for exams, to forging lifelong friendships in dorms or fraternities.
The comedic classic National Lampoon's Animal House is at the top of many fan lists as one of the funniest coming-of-age movies ever made. Following closely behind is Old School which similarly features an all star cast playing exuberant misfits who refuse to grow up into adulthood too soon. Meanwhile cult classics like PCU serve as snapshots into life on campus during different decades - whether you're looking back fondly or laughing at how much has changed in recent years.
Finally there are more serious stories like Legally Blonde which follow characters who rise above adversity while attending college and prove they can do anything they set their minds too. So why not take a look through this list and vote up your favorite college movies? You never know when you might just find an old gem or discover something new.
