<p>In South Carolina, USC-Columbia is actually an extremely good value and a fine school. Dont overlook it. Don’t be sucked into the prestige game, as in USNWR rankings. That is superficial. </p>
<p>Go where your heart is, and perhaps where the best scholarship is.</p>
<p>For private schools in South Carolina, I recommend highly Furman, Presbyterian College and Wofford College.</p>
