Quick Tips

• Take advantage of all the events and activities available on-campus. You’ll meet new friends and have a better collegiate experience.
• Use the time between classes for homework and studying. Places such as The Cove in the Student Center, the Rivers Library, and the Brewer Center offer lots of seating and areas to plug in a laptop or charge your phone. There are outside seating areas in front of Rivers Library and Student Center. There are also small lounge areas in many buildings on campus.
• Allow plenty of time to travel to campus in the Charleston traffic. 
• Use your travel time wisely. If you need to read a book for English class, see if it is available as an audio version and listen during your commute.
• Your CSU ID gains you admission to athletic events on campus. Join the Blue Crew and have some fun.
