Review of University of South Carolina-Upstate

from Spartanburg, SC

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

College is never easy. But I feel challenged here in such a way that I enjoy. I've learned more at Upstate than I did at the other school I attended. The teachers are always willing to help and are dedicated to student learning. I feel that I will excel in my career due to what I have learned so far at Upstate.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I transferred here from a different university the second semester of my freshman year. I was scared about having to readjust to a new school but I found it to be a lot easier here. The atmosphere is so inviting. I was more comfortable getting more involved on campus and immediately started making new friends. I'm now very involved in several campus activities which has definitely been worth my while.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

No college tuition is cheap. But I feel like I am getting my money's worth. I enjoy being on campus everyday and I enjoy all of my classes. The atmosphere alone is worth the money.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Come in with an open mind and a goal of getting involved. College is all about putting yourself out there and making a name for yourself. Upstate is the perfect place to start that process.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

If you love a diverse atmosphere and a small,intimate campus, this is the college for you.
