Hello! My name is Jim Rhoton, and I have been with Charleston Southern University since August 1999. Since joining CSU, I have earned my Masters in Business Administration, my wife finished her bachelor’s degree, and we both have experienced God’s incredible blessing through the birth of our baby girl! I joined the Enrollment Services Office as the Director of Admissions in June, 2007. I am excited that you are looking to further your education at Charleston Southern!

There is nowhere as exciting as Charleston Southern University, where you can grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ spiritually, mentally, and emotionally, and at the same time receive a world-class education! My professors at CSU challenged and equipped me to dream more, grow more, and do more than I thought possible.

Charleston Southern University is a family, and we would love to have you join us as part of that family. If I can do anything for you, or if you want more information about CSU, please contact the Enrollment Services Office at (800) 947 – 7474 or (843) 863 – 7050. We look forward to meeting you!

Hey! My name is Nick Ballenger, and I graduated from CSU in May 2004 with a Bachelor of Arts in Religion. I started working with the Enrollment Services team in April 2005.

While attending Charleston Southern, faculty, staff, and fellow students gave me opportunities to develop as a person and grow my faith. I was actively involved in Campus Crusade for Christ, and I also played intramural sports. Being at CSU felt like being part of a small family, and I certainly took advantage of the faculty that offered me the personal attention I needed to develop both in and out of the classroom. Join us for a campus visit or Open House, and come see for yourself what Charleston Southern has to offer!

Hey! My name is Mike Smith, and I graduated from Charleston Southern in May 2005 with a B.S. in Kinesiology and a minor in Business Admin. After working in sales since graduation I jumped at the chance to return to my alma mater as an Enrollment Counselor in August 2007.

My four years at Charleston Southern were quite honestly the greatest four years of my life. My experiences here are ones that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. The tight knit community the university offers is one of a kind. One of the greatest things about CSU is the small town atmosphere where everyone knows everyone. The professors are very generous with their time and will take the time out to get to know each and every one of their students. The Christian atmosphere that CSU offers is amazing and no doubt helped me become the person I am today.

I am thrilled to be your Enrollment Counselor and look forward to helping you through the entire enrollment process. If you have any questions regarding the school, or would like to set up at campus visit please feel free to contact me at psmith@csuniv.edu or you can reach me via phone at 843-863-7050 or 1-800-947-7474.

Hey! My name is Jeremy Nuckolls. I joined the Enrollment Services team in May, 2006 after graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Religion and Youth Ministry from Charleston Southern University.

I was showered with knowledge and wisdom while at Charleston Southern. The best part about the school is its small family style network. I was active in the music program, Campus Crusade for Christ, as well as other ministry teams while at CSU. The faculty, staff, and students work hand in hand to perfect the learning environment as well as to remain focused on the school's Christian focus. This campus is a place that can change your life and can strengthen much more than just knowledge.

If you feel that Charleston Southern might be the right place for you, feel free to contact me by email jnuckolls@csuniv.edu or phone at 1-800-947-7474 or 843-863-7050 if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hey! My name is Leslie Mitchell, and I graduated from CSU in May 2003 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication and Theatre. I started working with the Enrollment Services Team in August 2003.

As a student at Charleston Southern, I always knew that I was a part of a special place. Since the campus was so small, it was easy to feel at home.

The faculty and staff genuinely care about you and will make time to help you with any problems you may be facing. This quality is definitely something that is unique to a small school.
