Welcome to the South Carolina Community
Our office knows the transition to college can result in many different emotions,
and we are here to help. It is our goal for you to feel as prepared as possible, whether
you have attended college before or are just starting out.
New Student Orientation provided me with the information I needed to begin my experience
as a South Carolina student. I know that I have the resources and support necessary
to be successful at UofSC.
