Did you know that Pentecostals and Roman Catholics dominate the Non-SDA new student population at USC?

Freshmen Enrollment 2012-2013

Naturally, as a faith-based educational institution, the University of the Southern Caribbean is interested to know the religious background of its student population. This information is very useful for a wide variety of purposes, but particularly because it helps to set the tone, temperament and/or culture of the 3,500-body institution. These and other useful facts and figures are contained in the most recent edition of the USC Factbook.

Bajan USCian Wins B'dos Calypso Crown

The Bajan USCian community, if not also the rest of the University of the Southern Caribbean (USC) family in the eastern and southern Caribbean, is still abuzz with the news that one of our own recently won the coveted 2013 Barbados calypso monarch competition.  Although our largely conservative-evangelical Christian culture eschews the calypso genre for its perceived worldliness, misogyny and objectification of women, we celebrate our fellow alum's obvious talents and hope and pray for him that he would soon return them to the higher joy and greater service for which they were given.  By way of reminder, Mr. Webster is also one of the composers of the current USC School Song.
