Go to Campus Outreach. Get to know Dr. Smith and Dr. Smith, and Dr. Beasley, Dr. Wanliss, and Dr. Heiser!!! Live in Smyth, because that's the best dorm no matter what they say... ;-)

PC is a small school with a big, inclusive community. You can get to know your professors much better than any others schools guaranteed.

The campus is beautiful! Classes are hard but a degree from PC looks really good when trying to get any job. There's not a lot to do in Clinton but Greenville, Greenwood, and Spartanburg are close. There are a bunch of fun events on campus all the time. Sports, fraternities, student-run activities, fca, Campus outreach. PC is awesome!

Presbyterian College is an amazing college. All of the professors truly care about the well being and academic success of their students and want to see them succeed.

PC is a great school. I love the faculty, staff, and culture on campus. I would recommend campus to friends and often invite them up to Fraternity Court for a fun weekend.

It's small, which makes it feel like home. Professors are great and work with you. There are many different things to be involved in. Going out on the weekends is so fun and everyone is included. The campus makes sure you're safe, and everything is walking distance which is a plus. The food could use improvement though.

I love Presbyterian College! It is small, but it is academically challenging and has a great reputation because of it. I am so glad that I am able to attend this awesome college!
Bad reviews
Overall 1.4
PC is a fun school as far as socializing, but a majority of the teachers are rude and unwilling to help. This school claims that the student comes first, but that is not true. The teachers don't care about the students, they lack faculty in the cafeterias, the dorms and bathrooms are absolutely disgusting. PC has gone down hill.
Overall 1.8
Meh.

Worst place ever, only thing good about it is small class size and caring professors.
Overall 2
PC had some professors that were beyond helpful and informative, in the other hand, others were no where near. It is not a college for all majors. The location is awful and in the middle of no where. I do not recommend.
