Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Professors are reasonable, knowledgeable, and experienced. If you make an effort to go to their office hours for help, stay involved in in-class discussion, and overall try to perform well in the class, everyone is very willing to help and listen.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Charleston is a fabulous city! There is so much to do here, no matter what your interests are. I love being involved on campus and have made great friends.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
While the cost of the College of Charleston is high for out-of-state students, I believe that the quality of education you receive as a student at the College is well worth it. I have been away from the College for the semester, and the quality of education at my other university could not compare to what I was used to at the College.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Make sure your professors know your name and think of you as hard-working.
Have fun, but not too much. It's easy to get too caught up in the fun to be had in Charleston and forget that you're here to learn.
Love living in the most beautiful city in the world and appreciate your time there.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Everyone! We have a lot of diversity with students from all across the United States and all over the world. We have a vibrant Greek community, if that's of interest to you, that is smaller than many state universities, however, this allows you to really feel connected to other students in Greek life. Great art programs, as well as science; overall a great choice for those who want a well-rounded education
