Chris

Anyone who wants to attend Clemson should be ready for a full workload all the time. There is no such thing as an easy major. So far, I have had more fun in my first year at Clemson than I have had in my whole life. Being able to balance school and social life is essential. If you find that perfect balance, it will end up being 4 unforgetably amazing years of your life.

Erin

The type of person that should attend this school is someone who is outgoing, intellectual, & athletic. In order to really take advantage of Clemson you have to be outgoing & willing to join some of the great clubs. You have to be intellectual because the classes are very challenging. You also have to be athletic because of the for mentioned hills and because everybody on campus loves to run around & play frisbee or get involved in intermurals or just go for a run. It is a very active campus.

Tiffany

To attend this school, a person must either be very intelligent and willing to put in the work to get the results they want, or just be a great athlete and take easy classes and pass (sarcasm).

Aurora

The type of person that should attend this school is someone who is serious in getting a good education, good career, and a successful life.

Jaime

Clemson has a variety of stereotypical students. From backwoods country kids to preppy, Sperry wearing fraternity guys and sorority girls, Clemson really does have it all. I would say that the majority of the school takes pride in their southern heritage and may be a little harsh on people coming in from the North. Overall, if you like to have fun, study hard, and are from the south, you will fit in fine.

Clarissa

Anyone who wants a great education and wants to better themselves when they graduate. Clemson is a great school for further education. Once you graduate from a school such as Clemson, people will notice because Clemson is such a highly recognized university. I didn't know how many people actually graduated from Clemson and went on to do bigger and better things.

Christopher

The type of person that needs to attend this school is a person trying to recieve a valuable education where they would be able to compete on the national stage and wont have to go a far way from home. A person who is looking to lead in the coming years and who is going to be this country's future leaders. A person who wants to gain knowledge about certain things and areas of interest. A person who wants to diversify themselves and meet new people from many backgrounds and races and able to network and be social with

Desiree

It's cozy. The people are warm and friendly, the campus is absolutely beautiful, and it's not extremely expensive in reference to the amount of education you receive.

Katelyn

Friendly and smart people who love outdoors and playing should attend Clemson.

Christopher

Dedicated, social people should attend this school. The curriculum keeps students engaged al the time, and is very challenging. Students must work hard to earn good grades. While students must be dedicated to their work, they must also be able to socialize with others and make many friends. Shy or intraverted people will have trouble here, because most people are extraverted and very open when it comes to meeting new people.

Rebecca

Someone with a good work ethic - you can't just slide by in this school unless you are an athlete (they always get exceptions of one kind or another). You have to work hard. Someone looking for strong school spirit and a friendly campus will find it here, and someone who wants to discuss a lot in class - not just blindly take notes - will like it too. People who can come up with things to do by themselves will also be well off, because there isn't too much to do around here without driving a few hours on weekends.
