Serving the Upstate 
With both a thriving campus in Spartanburg and an escalating presence in 
Greenville, the University is “The University of South Carolina in the Upstate,” 
supporting not only its own academic programs, but partnering with USC in 
hosting future programs that USC may place in the 1-85 corridor. While 
continuing to grow in Spartanburg , the University has delivered more and more 
of its degree programs within the framework of the University Center of 
Greenville. The name change occurred to position the University to develop the 
breadth of partnerships in Greenville it has and will continue to develop in 
Spartanburg and elsewhere across the 1-85 corridor. 
Among the fastest growing universities in South Carolina, USC Upstate is a 
diverse and dynamic community of 5,500 students from across the 
world. With 36 states and 51 countries represented among the student body, the 
University reflects the Upstate’s international character.
