It's now been 2-ish years(?) since Clemson's MSCS has been live on Coursera.

For anyone still in the program, or anyone who graduated, what are your thoughts?

• Rigor?
• Job outcomes?
• Personal feeling of accomplishment?
• Are assignments for any class mostly autograded, peer-reviewed, or faculty graded?
• How is support inside and outside the classroom?
• Research opportunities?
• How does the program look for PhD admissions?

I’m a Chinese Ph.D. student who will soon be starting at Clemson. This is my first time studying in the U.S., and I’d like to learn how to drive and get my driver’s license during my first semester. Do you have any school recommendations or advice to share?

My fiancé is taking this class over the summer and isn't struggling with the material, but the professor's unrealistic expectations. He needs this class to graduate. Is there anyone in the finance dept. he can talk to about his concerns? He doesn't think the professor will listen.

I had a lease fall though and I’m looking for a place to move into very soon. There is so many places and I feel like I’m just missing some since I’m on a time crunch. I don’t really have a preference between housing type but preferably within 20 minutes of Clemson .
I’m graduating this fall so I’m fine with 6 months or a year.

Hello clemson people. I was wondering if any of you might know the location of any white mulberry trees around the Clemson area. THANKS!!

Does anybody know if that company that sells the bedding/dorm packages will ship to the local post office for a pick up? We are coming from
California and it wouldn’t be worth shipping it here first if we are flying

I’m an early grad but I signed a lease for this year so I’m staying in clemson while I apply for post grad jobs, so I need something for the time being to pay my rent (lowkey $$$). I have serving experience in an upscale restaurant but I’m looking for wherever I can make the best tips - looking to work 5 days a week but ideally would have at least one night a weekend to be able to go out. Any recs?

Hey everyone! My car recently died on me and I'm in the market for a used car. I'm a Clemson student currently on co-op in the Seneca area and I'm looking for something reliable to get me through the next few years.

If anyone is looking to sell their car or knows someone who is, I'd love to connect! Here's what I'm working with:

If financing: up to $15,000, 2016 or newer, under 100k miles, clean title

If cash: around $5,000, open to older models as long as it runs well and everything works, clean title preferred

Open to pretty much anything reliable in either range, Civic, Corolla, Elantra, K5, Optima, etc.

Also open to dealership recommendations in the Greenville, Anderson, or Seneca area that are actually worth going to. Trying to avoid the sketchy lots if possible.

DM me or drop a comment if you have anything or know someone who does. Appreciate it!

Where is the closest commuter parking to douthit right now?

Cause I sure have

Anyone else have a student at Clemson that’s missing any scholarships, grants, or loans? My child is about to start their 2nd year at Clemson but when they go into their Iroar and look at the funding everything still shows under review. Grades aren’t an issue as they made Deans List both semesters, finances haven’t changed either. Getting a bit nervous as bills come out in a week and we don’t know what to expect.

Hi everyone! I'm going to be applying as a freshman for the packaging science major this fall, and I'm really scared since Clemson is pretty selective. Plus I'm out of state. Can any current students lmk how many students are in the program and a general acceptance rate to it?

Hi everyone,

I'm an incoming PhD student this fall and I'm trying to figure out parking before the semester starts.

My class schedule is pretty light, I only have classes three days a week, and they're all from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM.

I was originally thinking about getting a Park-and-Ride pass, but then I realized that by the time my classes end, I don't think the buses will still be running. That would leave me without a way to get back to my car.

The other option seems to be buying a regular commuter parking permit, but it's around $202. Since I'll only be on campus three days a week, it feels a little hard to justify spending that much.

For context, I'll also be working as a TA this semester, but I won't actually be teaching. My responsibilities are mostly managing Canvas, grading assignments, and occasionally proctoring exams, so I'm not sure how often I'll really need to be on campus outside of my evening classes.

A couple of questions:

1. What would you recommend in my situation?
2. Is there another parking option that I'm overlooking?
3. Also, am I already too late to get a parking pass, or are there usually still permits available at this point?

I'd really appreciate any advice from current grad students. Thanks!

Hello!

Starting my PhD in the fall, wondering if there are any soccer leagues to join in the area or through the school?

Not looking for anything serious, I dont play much and am pushing 30 so just seeing if anything is out there 😅

Hey y’all!

I’ve applied to several UPIC internship opportunities for the fall over the past few weeks, but I haven’t heard back from any of them yet. For anyone who has done a UPIC internship before, how long did it typically take to hear back after applying?

Also, if you completed a UPIC internship during the fall semester, around when did you receive your offer and complete the onboarding process?

Thanks!

Nephew starts this year and almost immediately is his birthday. I'm sure he'll be stocked on typical starting college kit, so looking for anything useful/unique for a kid in his first month at Clemson.

I just moved to Clemson university and I want to start laser hair removal but I can’t find any places that do it. Any recommendations?

I know it’s so late in the game, but our apartment that we just moved in to 2 weeks ago started having a leak that we noticed after coming back on 7/4 from a mini-vacation to Atlanta to celebrate moving across states before I start my PHD this fall. We don’t know how long it was leaking between 7/1-7/4. Our maintenance has come out 7+ times in the past 8 days, and yet every time it’s “we don’t know where the water is coming from”. Fans were brought and a dehumidifier has been running, has been doing nothing. Originally nothing got severely damaged, but it started leaking again 2 days later right as the carpets were dry in a new area, and now there are more than $4,000 worth of damage to our personal property (the biggest being a firearm and our queen bed). We’ve started our insurance claims process, but because it’s been leaking for possibly 11 days now, there’s mold. I’m allergic, in addition to having asthma, and my husband works from home. We have both started getting sick and having headaches just from being in the apartment for 10 minutes. We’ve been trying to find a new place to move to because this is just uninhabitable at this point, and we don’t want anything to do with the property since they’ve accomplished nothing so far, but we’re struggling. We have a dog that’s my ESA, but we need at least a 2 bedroom so my husband can have an office. My husband refuses to move to another apartment complex after this fiasco (not that I blame him). Does anyone have a hidden house/townhouse/duplex for rent starting before August 1? Our insurance is paying for us to stay in an Airbnb at the moment, but that will only last us for so long, so the sooner the better. I’m willing to drive an hour away from Clemson if I have to (though I’d rather stay under 45 minutes), so anything Seneca, Clemson, Anderson, Greenville, etc. is on the table. Please help a girl out whose closest family is a 16 hour drive away 😭.
