Winthrop University

Expensive school, okay pay-off. I transferred here for ease of travel since I live in the area. For the price, there are better universities in the area. They've showed their struggle a lot recently through the school feeling more ghost-town like and job instability. I'm glad I'm close to finishing out my degree, because otherwise, I would feel uneasy going here.

They just announced that seniors and juniors are being displaced from housing because they keep admitting mass amounts of freshman. The dropout and transfer rate is going to rise. Don't come here if you want to live here and finish school here.

I’ll always love this university. So many amazing memories that will last with me forever. Whether it was sports or spending time studying, or hanging out with my friends, it was a pleasure knowing that this school is always with me. There will never be another school experience like this one. I could type a letter about this, but I’ll save that talent for another day.

Has the best disc course in the State and hosts the US Championship almost every year at this point. A must visit for any avid player.

Student and staffs here are super nice and helpful! Beautiful campus and walking distance from dormitory. I enjoy my studying in WU!

If you are a Transfer student, DO NOT WASTE YOUR VALUABLE TIME. Look into Other schools that will Focus their studies in the field you wish to build a career in. Professional Studies in Organizational Operations is Atrocious! My situation, I was told, will help future students. Ridiculous. The classes did not follow Operations at all, and the Organization is a disgrace! Since my enrollment in 2023, due to the advisor’s lack of urgency and ability to pay attention to transferred transcripts, I started classes a week late each semester. The feeling I got from this school is that the staff are So complacent in their position, there is no sense of motivation. There needs to be employment restructuring. Considering all the PhD’s that surround you, they Know Nothing!!! Horrible.

When I went to school here, it was the most expensive publicly funded university in the state. I’m sure it’s still the same way. It took a decade to pay off my student loans. Don’t come to this school unless you know exactly what you want to study. In fact you would probably be better off taking electives and general education courses at technical college and transferring here as a junior. All programs here are not created equal either. This is a liberal arts college, so look elsewhere if you’re interested a STEM degree. They called incessantly for years asking for donations while I was struggling with student loans payments.
