Carolina Welcome
At the University of South Carolina's fall, back-to-campus celebration enjoy equal parts of fun and discovery during your first days on campus.
Each year during Carolina Welcome, we roll out the garnet carpet for new and returning
students. Beginning with Move-In and continuing well into the start of the fall semester,
students can enjoy two weeks of fun and free activities to celebrate being on campus.
Experience big-time campus events such as Bustle at the Russell, First Night Carolina,
Football Season Kickoff, the student organization and part-time job fairs and much
more.
