Among these destinations, many international students make a point to visit and experience beautiful beachside areas such as the lovely Kiawah Island community (which arguably boasts some of the most beautiful golf courses nestled along the east coastline of the United States), during their academic breaks.

Not only is South Carolina home to beautiful landscapes, rich history, and plenty of fun places to visit and things to do- it’s also home to wonderful, year-round climate (humid-subtropical), that promotes its land use for farming, contributing to its production of agricultural goods such as tobacco, poultry, cattle, soy beans, rice, and hogs (all of which continue to be profitable and staple outputs of the South Carolina economy). South Carolina is bordered by North Carolina to its north, the state of Georgia to its south and west, and the Atlantic Ocean to its east. The most populated counties in this state include (in descending order) Greenville, Richland, Charleston, Spartanburg, Lexington, and York. Additionally, its major cities include Columbia, Spartanburg, Charleston, Florence, Rock Hill, and Greenville.
