Sophomore: I absolutely love attending Wofford! Currently, I am a sophomore majoring in chemistry and philosophy and I am on the track and field team. I chose to attend Wofford because of the community aspect and close connectedness of staff, students, and alumni. I am aware that many college talk about how well connect the community of their school is, but no college I have ever been to compared to Wofford. I toured large public school, small schools, private schools, Ivy League schools, and no school’s community was comparable to Wofford’s community.... Read 374 reviews

Freshman: Within the first two weeks of my college experience, Furman University truly became my home! Its community, I believe, is what sets it apart from all the other colleges I had been considering. Whenever I am surrounded by my fellow students, friends, professors, or staff members, I always feel loved, welcomed, and heard. I feel that Furman exceeds in the following categories: academics, campus life/scenery, professors, and student life. There are so many incredible things to do on campus and in class each day. I love feeling engaged and partaking in activities that I know are rewarding and helping my community in some capacity. I feel that the academic and social value of Furman University cannot be matched by any other school! Go Dins!... Read 600 reviews

Sophomore: BJU is a really great school! The academics provide a challenge that really makes you feel like you earned your degree. The campus life is great as well. All the students and faculty that you meet just walking around campus are very kind and friendly. The biggest thing for me is the Christian atmosphere at BJU. This school is really helping me grow as a person, academically, socially, and spiritually. The atmosphere of the school, however, (enforced by the rule book) is very conservative so if you have a problem with more traditional-style rules then this isn’t the school for you. The biggest thing I would change about the school is the price. While more affordable than some other college, financial aid is still required. Even with the price being the way it is, still a phenomenal college overall!... Read 1,109 reviews
