Getting an education is very important in today's society, so important; it has been the topic for a lot of movies. There are some movies out there about college that are better than others, of course that also depends on your personal preference on movie genres. There are all types of movie genres about college like horror, comedy, drama, romance, there are even documentaries on the subject. However, like I said, some are better than others, which lead us to our list of the best movies about colleges.

The movie 'Accepted' is about a group of kids who didn't make it into a college and decide to create their own, South Harmon Institute of Technology. The main character, Bartleby (Justin Long), is the master mind behind the scheme that ends up backfiring on him when a large group of student shows up ready to start the semester. Bartleby and his friends decide to let all of the students in and have classes that are designed to what they want to learn about. Eventually the college school board finds out and they have to fight to make South Harmon a respectable university.

'Revenge of the Nerds' is a classic college movie. When two friends, Lewis Skolnick and Gilbert Lowe, who are also big nerds, are accepted to Adams College, they are harassed and teased by members of the Alpha Beta fraternity and Pi Delta Pi sorority. The two friends decide to join a fraternity so they can bring their complaints about the Alpha Betas to the Greek Council, but they are rejected from all of the national fraternities except for the Lambda Lambda Lambdas. The nerds use their logic and 토렌트 skill to take over the Greek Council and eventually the nerds get their revenge on the Alpha Betas.

National Lampoon's 'Van Wilder' starring Ryan Reynolds is all about college life. Van Wilder spends 7 years in college and is the most popular student at Coolidge College. Van meets a girl, Gwen Pearson (Tara Reid) who is one of the head reporters at the schools news paper, the problem is she already has a boyfriend. Of course, the two are then fighting for the girl, not as in dueling, but seeing who can cause the most damage with different pranks. One of the pranks almost gets Van expelled, but instead he is forced to finish the school year in six days and must graduate. Van gets the girl in the end of course, and he successfully graduates college.

The number one movie about college is 'Animal House'. Another movie by National Lampoon, follows a group of guys in the Delta Tau Chi fraternity. The fraternity is an outcast on campus and the Dean puts them on "double secret probation" for low academic standings of members and repeated campus violations. In the mean time he puts the head of a rival fraternity Omega Theta Pi to find away to get rid of the fraternity once and for all. The movie shows the boys crazy antics as they get their fraternity banned from campus and later are expelled from school. 'Animal House' Stars John Belushi, Kevin Bacon, Tim Matheson, and Peter Riegert to name a few.
