Small Department
The neuroscience major is very small, thus there are not that many professors that teach the courses within it;therefore, it is pretty easy to get to know the professors on a personal level.

Furman is going to kick you pretty hard when it comes to academics, but try to not let that get you down. Everybody is going through the same thing, but Furman is so full of Type A's that it can often seem like you're the only one having a hard time. Work hard, but rely on your friends to help you and realize you need a break every once in awhile. Furman has a lot to offer on campus and especially downtown greenville, so take advantage.

Look for Outside Scholarships
I received a good financial package and the financial office is very nice about getting everything set up. The process was very easy and unstressful. However, if you do not get as much as you would like or need, I'd suggest searching on your own for out outside scholarships because Furman doesn't really help you there
