Coastal Carolina University Top Questions

The unique part about Coastal Carolina is the location and school spirit. The campus is only 9 miles away from the beautiful Myrtle Beach and has the prettiest campus I have ever seen, with plam trees and fountains everwhere. The school spirit is amazing at this school, everyone takes so much pride in Coastal and it makes me enjoy going here. The beautiful campus and wonderful atmosphere is what made me choose Coastal over any other school.

The first college I attended was the College of Charleston. The art classes I attended there are the foundation of all of my skill today, but the teachers never gave instructional demonstrations. CofC's methods are based on trial and error where students are given prompts but are largely self taught. While this method often breeds creativity, it takes students longer to understand basics that could be taught very quickly by a teacher. At CCU, teachers often paint, draw, and create in front of students conveying basic and essential skills quickly, and in an easy to understand manner.

I have attended multiple schools. This is because I have struggled finding a university that best fit my needs. Coastal Carolina University was an extremely welcoming campus and atmosphere. My first month at school they had something fun for students to do every day! My program was created so I was active on campus and quickly made friends! (Something I struggled with since I don't live on campus.) I am striving with great grades, great friends and excellent professors! I can honestly say they made my campus life experience easy and home like.

The school is always adding new things that in return supplement higher education. Instead of using money for things that do not help all of the students attending the University, Coastal Carolina Univeristy insure every student can gain something from everything they do.

Coastal is unique because the students and staff are all concerned about every individual's well being.

The atmosphere was the first consideration. Since my divroce I really had to reset just to start enjoying my life again. My father was stationed here in before the Air Force base was closed down, and I find myself thinking about all the talks and times we spent while we were here for the three years here. Second was the cost for the quality of eduation. My goal was to go to Clemson but I lived there while married so I wanted to do something for myself without going too far into debt.

The campus thrives on student involvement. Student input is highly valued and the University provides many oppotunities for community and campus involvement.

Being that Coastal is not a very large school, the students are close. The students are also there to cheer the sports team on, or even lend a helping hand when classes are tough.

Compared to the other schools that I applied to Coastal Carolina wasa the school that made me feel most comfortable. When I came to visit I got the feeling that I would always feel as if this would be home and that it was very secure. I also picked Coastal Carolina because of the school spirit.
