  • College Review

    • What is your overall opinion of this school?

       

      CofC is a great mid-sized school. The classes are about the right size and all the teachers know your name when you are in their classes. The city is absolutely amazing. You're right downtown in a gorgeous historic city and can walk to almost anything you need.

    • What are the academics like at your school?

       

      Professors are the best part of academics at CofC. Professors know your name and are easily available outside of class. They have office hours set aside specifically to meet with students. There's a great variety of classes, including fun ones like social dancing! Many of the professors are really down to earth and love to get to know the students on more than an academic level.

    • Describe the students at your school.

       

      The great thing about CofC is that there is such a mixture of students. Although people from the same "group-type" may be friends together, there isn't really any open problems from one group to another. It's hard to feel out of place with such a wide variety of students. You can see the variety in what students wear to class. People might be dressed up or coming to class in sweats and t-shirt.

    • What are the most popular student activities/groups?

       

      Activities at CofC are as good as you make them. Being in such a vibrant city, activities on campus are more of an option than a requirement on campus. There are such a variety of organizations that its easy to find one to fit into and that has your interests. Even if there isn't, the process of starting up your own group is simple! There is a great social and you can always find something to do whether it involves drinking or not. CofC has events planned every Friday night to give an alternative fun Friday for those that don't like the party scene. Greek life is a great addition to the CofC campus but one that isn't the majority of students. It's a great option for meeting friends but you can meet many through various other activities as well!
