The University of South Carolina Upstate is my home away from home. I do not live on campus but I am connected and thrive in student life. The academics are excellent and there is a healthy amount of competition that drives students to go beyond their comfort zones and to succeed a higher levels. The overall size of the campus is relatively small, which allows for an easy find and it is easier to connect with the fellow students. If and when you choose Upstate to be your future home, you will understand the saying, "UP is where we live". By choosing Upstate you are not only picking a destination for your academic adventure, but you are joining the Upstate family which will become your forever home.
USC Upstate is a great school. Even though it isn't as big as other schools, when you walk onto the campus you can really see the efforts that the students have put into it to make it a great place. The teachers are really kind and flexible. Because it's not that big of a school, students are able to intimately get to know their classmates and teachers but yet still be on a professional level.
I believe Upstate is a great school, if you are looking to have fun but always focus on academics this is the school for you. There are a lot of things to do on campus, there is a swimming pool, basketball court, many food courts etc. This is just a great school
I love my University. I am going to be in the nursing program and I will say that it is very difficult. I always think though that I would want someone that knows what they’re doing to be helping me rather than someone that does not. Overall though I would say that the University is a good college!

I consider the faculty the best thing about my school because without them and the great attitude they have and the desire for their students to learn, I would not be able to get such a good degree.

I have heard many great things about USC Upstate, from its outstanding academics to its helpful teachers in every major.
The worst thing about my school is that there is now alot to do in spartanburg, sc. there are some on campus activities, but they are not that interesting. your social life becomes a bore, even though charolette NC is an hour away and columbia SC is two hours. Also Some of the teachers have the I got mine you gotta get yours menatlity. There is no make up policy and if you are an english, comunication , theater, or any arts major, you will be loaded with extensive resarch papers from each class.
I think the most unique thing about USC Upstate compared to other schools are the private bathrooms. Most schools have commuinty bathrooms where you have to share with everyone on your dorm floor. At Upstate you have a bathroom available in your dorm room that you just share with your roommates.
The University of South Carolina, Upstate is a diverse university which tries to incorporate every culture of student on its campus. The professors are accessible and are willing to help each and every student who asks for their help. The environment is amazing, it is not too big or too small.
Eager and ready to learn.
All. This school is user friendly to 18 year olds as well as 60 year olds, to handicap and overweight, to all races and ethnicities.
A person who is an indivivual, and who enjoys a challenge, a person open to many different religions and ethnicities, and who is open minded.
The University of South Carolina, Upstate is best known for its Nursing and Education programs. These two programs are well known.
The most frustrating thing about my school would be the distance you have to walk to get to class. You need to make sure you leave at least 10 -20 minutes before your class starts to make sure you get there on time without being completety exhausted.
However often works for you. But keep in mind that part of the college experience is to learn how to be an independent adult, and phoning home too often might cause you to get homesick.
