Do you have any tips for prospective students?
1) be sure you understand the requirements for your major.
2) get to know your professors. they are always helpful and want you to do well!
3) rmu is commuter friendly, so check out off campus housing before you plonk down a huge chunk of change for a dorm.
4) there is something here for everyone. get involved in one of the campus groups. we have everything from bible studies to swing dances- and yes, greek life too.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
almost every professor is absolutely wonderful, but you need to watch out for the occasional part-time professor that isn't as good as he or she could be. stick with professors with a proven track record.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
