| Not so bright | | This is not a review, this is a wayward student seeking advice.* what i wan't to know is whether i have a chance at getting into C of C. I'm a male who is out of state,are either of those benefits(seeing how out of state tuition is higher and men are a minority)? I will probably finish my junior year with a 3.0 overall, with my best grades as a junior. All my classes except for science are honors or AP. I am quite bright and generally score astonishingly well on standerdized test, the 3.0 is because i don't do HW, so i expect like a 30 on the ACT/ 1950 on the sat. I will probably be on varsity lacrosse, im in jv cross country and will be in two charity-esque clubs. Im a good writer but no Hemingway so my essay will be better than most but nothing to write home about. So basically, can I get in/ what can i do in my second semester of junior year to increase my chances? my gmail account email is kevinmiller812, windowless van owners need not respond.

This is really hard for me to write on here especially because I want to love College of Charleston. I definitely went here because of the gorgeous surrounding city and the beautiful campus. It's no doubt one of the prettiest places I've been to. However, if you are from the north, as I am, be prepared to feel like an outsider and feel like you are not welcomed. The south does still hold a lot of prejudices against the north and the kids reflect this. This school is largely girls and the ratio is a really big problem. Also, so many of the girls here are super superficial and really into their looks. You will go to a class and half the girls will be all dolled up like they are going out. The city has a lot to offer but it's hard to go to a school where the majority of the kids are from the surrounding areas and if you are not from South Carolina, you might as well be a foreigner. I have made friends here who are a lot of fun but to be honest, that's not the only part of college that helps make it a good experience. I have had a lot of ups and downs at this school and I don't know if that's how you are supposed to feel in college. Also, almost no one at this school has any school spirit. More people wear USC and Clemson clothes than CofC. This was really disappointing. There is no football team and the school lacks unity. I would basically suggest if you are from the north you might want to reconsider where you go to school. | Campus Aesthetics: A, Collaboration/Competitive: D |  | | |

| Bright | The College of Charleston's reputation has always impressed prospective employers. The network of connections I made in college, combined with my degree major, literally got me my first job and have come in handy in all endeavors. If I had it to do over again, I'd miss fewer classes--I partied too much and made it too hard on myself to catch up. Unlike most large universities, the classes were taught by actual professors and were pretty interesting. It's a fabulous school, academically and socially, and in a unique urban/historic environment. There's no other school like it. No matter where a student is going to school: Go to class! It makes it a lot easier. | Starting Job: PR/Press Assistant, Preparedness: B, Reputation: A |  | |
