South University-Columbia

What are the popular events and traditions at South University-Columbia?

South University-Columbia students can expect academic milestones such as orientation and graduation activities, but applicants should not assume the campus has the homecoming calendar or longstanding sports traditions associated with a residential university.

Campus and program calendars are the best guide to current activities, including any guest speakers, service projects, recognition events, or professional-development sessions. Because such events can change from term to term, a recent calendar is more informative than an undated description of a tradition.

What are the student housing and dining options at South University-Columbia?

South University-Columbia does not offer college-owned or college-operated undergraduate housing. Students need to arrange their own accommodations and account for the cost and commute when comparing the campus with residential colleges.

Applicants should not interpret a room-and-board amount in a general cost estimate as the price of a South University-Columbia residence hall or meal plan. Before signing a lease, students whose programs involve labs or clinical placements should confirm where those activities take place and whether their schedule could require travel beyond campus. For food between classes, ask the campus what dining facilities are currently available on site; privately purchased meals and groceries should be included in a personal budget.
