Student Responses to Review Topic: Bang for the buck

a past student here
It is a little pricey, even for in-state students, but you feel the payoff. The campus grounds are kept very nice, the dorm areas are cleaned regularly, the free-to-student shows and events are constant and high-end, and all the sports and clubs get huge support from the school itself. Recently football tickets for students has been a slight issue as they used to be free but are now costing a low base-fee, but typically the school responds positively to the voices of its students.

accepted here and planning to attend soon
If you are willing to put in the work, Clemson is definitely the place for you, they will work hard to help you find a job following your graduation. Very affordable for students attending in state and very worth it for those coming from out of state.

$22K is a lot, but you get lots of free software, fun, and a great education for the money. You also have a significantly higher chance of landing a job with a great well-paying company!
