Amazing campus in the perfect location. Halfway from Savannah and halfway to Hilton Head so there are always things to do around here. The student body here is amazing and everyone is super friendly and welcoming.

BEST TIME OF MY LIFE
Overall 4.6
The location can not be beat! University dorms are awesome. Class size is great. Professors are great. Wish there was more to do within walking distance - but if you have a car, you can be at the beach everyday!

I transferred to USCB after a semester at another school, and it's the best decision I have made relating to academics. I really enjoy being a student here.

Bad reviews

Bad school, unaffordable because there are extra fees on everything, professors read powerpoints in class. Everything is focused on keeping you in school and not much on learning anything you can use to make money.
Overall 1.5
If you want a school that values your schooling and professors that get back to you, it not the school for you.
Overall 1.5

i lived in the dorms, which are very nice, they are like apartments. my roommates on the other hand were god awful. there is so much drama around the whole campus because its like a big high school. the food is the nastiest you'll ever eat. and they use leftovers until they go bad. it really does feel like high school. i can't wait to transfer.
Overall 1.7
As a social person, this is the worst school you could go to. Nobody is ever doing anything and there is no student life whatsoever. Food is genuinely terrible. Professors are OK. Think about other schools.
Overall 1.7
Horrible school. They take your money and don't care about you after that . I have no idea how people who stay here end up getting a job. If you have to go here only take basic classes and then transfer to a real college like USC Columbia , Clemson, etc.

You won't graduate in four years. They let students without the proper pre-reqs enroll in classes.
