College of Charleston Top Questions

Yes, these types of people are definately on campus, there are really a lot of artsy people, but there are so many other types of people here too. I feel like anyone can come to CofC and find a place to fit in

a lot of the students are blond sorority girls, i'd even say the majority. but there are a lot of different kinds of people, you just need to search for them.

I don't believe that C of C is all that easy to get into, because I got deferred at first. I am a very dedicated student, and for me to get deferred at my first attempt into C of C, I think says a lot, at least for me! As for the hippie stereotype, I think we have a lot of "free" students.

I think there are some truths in all stereotypes, but CofC students are not the only college students with this reputation. These kinds of people exist everywhere.

No, they aren't accurate, of course we party, but just as much as all other colleges, so that stereotype shouldn't be taken into account when someone is deciding whether or not to come here.

sometimes

Not particularly. I haven't noticed a whole lot of partying but I'm not exactly the party type. We do have our fair share of "hippies" but we are a liberal arts school. And while some students aren't the brightest, we have many students who are very intelligent.

all stereotypes are accurate to a degree, otherwise they wouldn't exist.

Somewhat, but not a big percentage. Overall the students are really varied.
