Off-Campus Housing at Furman University

C

None

Students are required to live on campus anyway. The only exceptions are to live with your family, if you have a medical excuse, to be with a spouse, or if you have a financial reason. However, I have seen plenty of people denied with a true medical reason.

I gave it a C because the Vinings is a good, Furman-owned option off campus. Only available to seniors though.

Athletics at Furman University

A-

Where Are the Fans?

The football is getting better. The basketball is top notch. The baseball is wonderful. Why the A-? The students don't come out to support them! I'm in the band. As a member, I know we are only playing for the athletes. We need people in the audience.

Weather at Furman University

B+

Moody

The weather is moody. It is the South, though. The weather does that. It would just be nice to have a place to really hang out while it rains. Staying in the dorms, depending on which one you live in, can get boring.

Academics at Furman University

Tough but fun

I will say, it is tough. There is really not a good place to hide at times. However, it has made me really focus on things I have trouble with. The libraries are open late (I should know, I work at one). The people are kind and caring, for the most part. We can get free tutoring for 2 hours a week per subject. Even then, classes can be difficult. I've been able to keep my scholarships though!
