Coastal Carolina University spoke to me the second I visited campus for my initial visit. The campus is like no other, from the academic buildings to the residential communities. Every square inch looks like a resort, shining in the South Carolina sun. Myrtle Beach is just fifteen miles down the road, so chilling by the ocean is just a stone’s throw away. There is an organization for everyone here, with WCCU Radio being my favorite. The highlight of my college career thus far is hosting Teal Talk, a talk show covering the CCU baseball team. The connections I have made here have really shaped my life outside of the classroom and will continue to do so after I graduate. Coastal Carolina is the school for me and I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else.
