College of Charleston

A campus walk offers a glimpse of Charleston's historic college through Cistern Yard and Randolph Hall. The outdoor route works best for architecture lovers or prospective students.

Why go

The college has occupied this part of downtown since the eighteenth century, so its grounds sit within the city rather than apart from it. Cistern Yard and the Randolph Hall exterior give a compact view of that relationship; prospective students can use an admissions tour for a fuller campus introduction.

What to look for

  • Cistern Yard at the heart of campus
  • The exterior of Randolph Hall
  • The college's setting within downtown Charleston

Useful to know

  • Use the college's self-guided walking tour for an outdoor visit.
  • Book an admissions tour if you are considering the college; do not assume academic buildings are open to sightseers.
