University of South Carolina-Columbia Top Questions

Has a better physical therapy education department than others. The campus is pretty. I can do my 4 years without having to go else where. The student life is good and the football season is great!

The University of South Carolina is very unique in its diverse community and learning facilities. Its located in an old historical town and provides us with lots ot history right at our door. I like the atmosphere of Columbia and i fee comfortable here. They have some of the top schools in the contry for some of the best professions. They are highly ranked and well known.

The University of South Carolina has the number one International School of Business in the country and the number two school in the world. Also the Arts programs a very important to the community and the Southeast. This school has taught many famous and well-known singers, musicians, and actors to the Arts World. Also, the campus is beautiful and historic with many parks and memorials.

There's a strong sense of campus unity although it consists of thousands of students. The school spirit and desire to succeed is evident everywhere and everyone is friendly and willing to help their fellow man to succeed.

USC had the better program for Education and that is what I was going into at the time. They were also closer to home and I lived at home my first year.

We have a completely unique mascot, the Gamecock. The students always get together for sporting events in the best ways. Tailgaiting and blasting music and having a good time. Saturdays are the best days to bring together the whole student and alumni communities. Imagine seeing an 82,000 person stadium filled with almost 85,000 gamecock fans in garnet and black. It's a truly awesome sight when about 27,000 students are dancing to songs like ACDC's Thunderstruck and Sandstorm. Football games are probably the most exciting events to happen on campus.

There is a strong sense of community. Everyone gets along with everyone. Students and staff at Carolina really hold high standards and moral values and it shows not just during the week but everyday of the year, day and night. Also, school spirit is, in my opinon, the greatest and most honest kind of school spirit one can possess. There is no one I know that goes to Carolina and isn't proud to be a Gamecock.

A great thing about USC is the fact that even though it is a large school, it still has the feeling of a small environment. This is because, yes you will have to take a few large lecture classes, but the majority of the others will have less than thirty people. Therefore, you are able to build a closer relationship with your teachers and classmates, while still having the benefits of a large college. Also, it is a safe area where you can get around easily without a car because there is a downtown area where many stores are located.

School's alumni involvement

The strong alumni spirit and the fact that there are so many sports, extra curriculars, and interesting people here made it the best choice for me.
