Presbyterian College to Expand by Constructing a 144-Bed Student Dormitory

Presbyterian College Dorm

Presbyterian College recently held a ribbon cutting ceremony on August 7, 2019 to celebrate the completion of a 144-bed student dormitory. 

The event included tours of the dormitory which, by the way, is not your typical dorm room.  The complex features prime residential apartment like amenities.  Three buildings, located at the center of the campus, will house 144 seniors in 36 four-bedroom suites.  The suites include apartment style kitchen and living areas.  Other amenities include outdoor verandas, on-site laundry and dedicated parking.

South Carolina USDA Rural Development was instrumental in this project by financing over $50.8 million in loans that enabled the college to make this expansion.
