GrubHub Reveals Most Caffeinated, Earliest Rising and Biggest Late-Night Snack Colleges

There’s really no such thing as time in college. It bends and shifts in the weirdest ways until BAM! You graduate and suddenly understand what a clock is and that there are “regular hours” to do things.

In college though, you might eat dinner at 6pm, have a snack at 10pm and another dinner at 3am. Totally normal. You might party the night before a big exam, wake up early, chug some coffee and ace the thing. Hangover power, right? Then there are days you wake up early to hit the library and end up being awake for a full 20 hours, which equates to about 6 full meals and 23 cups of coffee. Oh, college.

GrubHub analyzed their massive amounts of data to rank the top 15 schools in a bunch of categories. Now let’s take a look at which schools are jacked up on caffeine, which wake up the earliest, and who orders the most insane amounts of late-night food.
