College is all about striking the right balance between work and play. Sure, you want to go to that kegger — but only after you've finished studying for the upcoming exam.

At some schools, though, students take it to the next level, studying diligently for hours and then raging all night long.

Our friends at College Prowler compiled a list of the most intense schools where students work hard and party hard. College Prowler ranks schools based on input from real students at the schools. To compile this list, they considered schools that students said have the toughest workloads and schools that students said have the most raging party scenes.

We've included some comments that students posted on College Prowler about the schools.

This is part of our series on The Best Colleges In America.
