I loved everything! The setting is I'm the hills of the Smokey Mountains abs the town is so college friendly. Being at a football game on a Saturday is like nothing else! To hear the roar of the crowns and ro know that you're there for the same common goal... to win as a family and to live like Champions! All of the professors have to do research in order to receive tenure, so they really encourage and thrive on research.
The weather is a bit tricky in the winter but you'll experience all four seasons here. The long hot summer days are filled with alot of homemade ice cream on campus. Yes, the school is an agricultural school so you can purchase a lot of organic foods, fresh eggs, salad dressings and ice cream on campus.
Come visit us to see Clemson!

I have felt very at home at Clemson ever since I toured it last summer. Everyone is very kind and welcoming, and the campus really feels like home! The classes and professors are awesome, and the student life is also very good! There is so much to get involved with on campus, and it is hard to be bored. The academics, athletics, student life, and people make Clemson the greatest college there is, and I am so happy that I chose to go here! I highly recommend coming to Clemson. Go Tigers!
As a transfer student, I was nervous about my upcoming experience at Clemson. I began to wonder from my previous year of college whether or not college was for me. However, within hours of starting Clemson I began to realize that college here was going to be great. My professors have embedded within me a love to read, and I have read more books that were not required by my classes, within my two years here, than I had in all of middle school and high school. Even though I did not focus on the social life at Clemson when I first started, I quickly was able to find friends from all backgrounds, some being from various clubs and fraternities, to those on the football team. College game day at Clemson is quite possibly the most exciting sports venue in the United States! Clemson has given me the ability to grow as a person, both academically and socially, and I see myself as being a better man since coming Clemson than I was two years ago before I enrolled here!
