[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter visited Charleston/the College of Charleston and was absolutely smitten with the quad/campus charm as well as adjacent Charleston proper and the nearby beaches.  I can see why - wow - so adorable!  I fear though that the school is probably not a good fit/choice (kid is high stats; 4.0 unweighted in highest rigor classes/APs; 1550 SAT and wants to do STEM).  Would the honors college there raise the level?  Any suggestions for schools with similar charm/adjacent cute shops and restaurants?  Preferably not too cold a climate?  [/quote]

No other school gives you all this. Stunningly beautiful historic campus and surrounding city. Beaches, amazing restaurants, fabulous shopping and great weather. Campus is literally one block from King Street, famous for its picturesque shopping and restaurant scene. Architecture is gorgeous with historic houses and buildings. The campus looks like a movie scene with its buildings dating back to the 1700s, the Cistern Yard, and brick sidewalks. Palm tress abound as do old oaks. Extremely Instagram worthy. Can't say enough. I have lived and traveled around the country and nothing compares. So much of the city is walkable and students are able to be outside and enjoy all year  - no freezing temperatures and piles of snow or ice. It has 10,000 undergrad, so nice mid size, not too small or large. Everyone also loves President Andrew Hsu who started in 2018. Students from all over the country, especially the NE and Mid-Atlantic. Charleston is definitely on the rise, and as a previous poster stated, will be one to watch in the coming years and decades.[/quote]
