Meet

Xudong Huang

Xudong Huang is an international student from the University of Nottingham Ningbo, China. He is a junior and is majoring in Business Finance and Accounting Management. Xudong hopes to study here in the United States for his Master’s degree in Business Finance.

Why did you choose to study here at the College of Charleston?

"We had many universities to choose from in the United States. I choose College of Charleston because of my college mate. He had studied at CofC and he had told me all about his experience coming here."

 Did you do any research before choosing College of Charleston?

"Before applying to the college, I did do a bit of research on the U.S. News and Education website. I wanted to see where the college was located and to check out the college’s rankings."

What did you do for your Fall Break?

"I went with the CofC International Club to Bryson City, North Carolina for four days. We hiked the Bartram Trail and rafted on the Nantahala River. It was a great experience and a great way to get to know people around the world."

Although the travel to the College of Charleston was a very long fourteen hours flight, Xudong was accompanied by his ten fellow classmates from the university. As they finally arrived to the beautiful city of Charleston, they were each excited to see what the city had in store for them.
