University of South Carolina

Program Info

The University of South Carolina is a large public research university located in Columbia, the capital city of South Carolina. Set in the heart of the Midlands region, Columbia is a mid-sized Southern city known for its warm climate, riverfront greenways, and a downtown that blends state government, business, and a lively college-town atmosphere. The university’s campus sits near the historic core of the city, anchored by the tree-lined Horseshoe, and gives students access to the energy of a state capital while keeping major outdoor destinations — lakes, rivers, and the South Carolina coast and mountains — within a reasonable drive. The combination of a flagship university, a year-round playable climate for tennis, and an engaged sports community makes Columbia a notable setting for college athletics.
