學校周遭環境很好之外學校和教室都很乾淨,設施也很棒。學校樓下就是cafeteria所以午餐有多種選擇,不用擔心沒東西可以吃。除了樓下的餐廳,學校裡的學生用餐地方很大,不僅有多台微波爐,還有冰箱跟販賣機,完全不用擔心上課途中會肚子餓。課程方面選擇很多,雖然我沒有選選修課,但我的室友有選,聽她說了之後覺得選修課還滿厲害的。至於staff方面,他們都很願意回答我們不懂的地方,下課活動也都是他們帶我們出去玩的。師資方面也很優,不僅學到很多文法還提升口說能力,並且糾正之前一直犯的各種錯誤,尤其的特色就是讓美國居民能夠直接與我們作交流,這也是我最喜歡的課程之一,因為北卡羅萊納州格林斯伯勒大學讓我更了解北卡羅萊納州,也學了很多當地美國人會用的會話用法。

卡羅萊納真的是一個很棒的城市,雖然小小的但在這就像一個小地球,民族多樣化之外景點也都超有特色。天氣雖然很常濃霧、強風永遠存在,但絕對是一個夏天避暑的最佳選擇。一開始覺得homeless真的很多,覺得他們很可怕,但其實不去招惹他們、不理他們,大致上是很安全的。特別推薦只有自己一個人遊學的學生一定要選擇舊金山,這裡的交通很方便,大眾運輸方便到什麼地方都可以去,絕對不用擔心交通的問題。至於晚上,這裡要晚上九點天才會黑,所以一天很長不用擔心玩不完,如果要天黑才回家,只要結伴其實都還滿安全的。
