Benedict has turned to be a big disappointment. Because if family history with Benedict, it was only right to attend but omg what a big difference. Some of the professors aren't professional and doen't seem to care about the student future. The lack of communication is disappointing. The athletic department has changed from great to worst. I'm definitely disappointed. If you're looking to come here, spend your money somewhere else

Benedict is a small liberal arts college located in Columbia, SC. What separates this institution from others in the area is the family feel felt throughout the college campus. The instructors ( 80+% with doctoral degrees ) provide a quality education within fields of studies that are in high demand in today's society.
