The majority of Jesuit universities are nowhere near as strict with their students as something like BYU or Wheaton. For example, if I wanted to go dancing, it wouldn't violate the school's honor code. We do have an honor code but it's nothing extreme like theirs. I basically go to the equivalent of a non-religious private school, but I'm required to take some theology and philosophy in addition to my regular coursework, and one of our "dorms" is for priests. I like my Jesuit university 10000x more than I liked my UW school, and I wouldn't trade it for anything other than a better Jesuit university. There are a lot of great websites out there explaining the principles of a Jesuit education.
