They know how to work hard and they know how to party, so if you're looking for a good mix of the two this is a good place to start. I always felt safe on campus; people are overall pretty friendly, outgoing and supportive- no real complaints about the student body

Jeremy

kinda nerdy

Kathryn

Most of my classmates are friendly and outgoing, but some are more focused on their schoolwork than others. Most students move off-campus after their freshman year because the school is near the beach and the area is perfect for nine-month student rentals. Off-campus houses are a great way to establish responsibility, but also a great place for parties. There aren't many cliques at the school, but most people definitely follow trends (2/3 of the student population sport Ugg boots and Northface jackets once the cooler months come around).
