"I feel safe because people here are really friendly in general and always would love to help me with something. Sometimes even if we are strangers, we can still talk to each other like we are friends. This makes me think Mount Pleasant is a very peaceful and hospitable town. And most times, I didn’t even lock the door when I go out, and I don’t even need to worry too much about it."

" Mount pleasant is a very safe city, friendly people there, and it is nice city to live and study. If you compare it with any other city you will see the best choice for you is Mount Pleasant.

"CMU responded my university application really quick, so I received the offer from CMU earlier than the other universities that I applied. The second reason is that the tuition fee is relatively lower than other universities. I involved some events on campus. Those exhibitions in the library are interested. Usually, those events that I involved in are related my major or my future career, so it promoted my learning experiences, as well as allowed me to meet more friends here."
