My experience with RIT so far has been very mixed. This is certainly a good school for education as all departments have a wide number of professors who genuinely care for your education and want you to learn and succeed. Most professors I've encountered are very helpful and understand the stress that comes with being a full-time student. I've been in classes that are quite engaging and were unique in that they allow me to do "hands-on" work outside of just reading the textbook (although some professors choose to work like this as well). The food is also pretty good if you have the money to spend on it. Campus safety will certainly keep you safe.

However as I enter my 4th year, I can't help but feel as if I've missed out on something. I've learned that college is more than education. The experience of being on your own and meeting a wide range of people from different states and cultures plays a big role too. This is where RIT simply falls flat on its face. I've encountered a lot of friendly people who I consider as friends, but for every friendly person, there's a handful of snobs and arrogant jerks. It's almost like people are inherently angry for no reason. The parties are actually very prevalent, but only if you like "frat-boy" attitude. Sure, RIT has a bunch of social clubs but those mainly consist of a group of people who are reluctant to let new members in. There is no sense of community or school spirit at RIT and while there is a plethora of guy-to-girl ratio jokes, you'll eventually figure out that they tend to cast a constant depressive mood across campus.

One major point that anyone reading this should know is that RIT DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ITS STUDENT BODY. They want your money plain and simple. Its unacceptable to accept more students than you can house and cram three/four freshman into a dorm that was only meant for two. The outdated drinking policy and campus safety's unwillingness to listen to legitimate student concerns will make sure your life is a living hell.

RIT is a fantastic place to get an education and nothing more. If your want your undergraduate college experience to be filled with social interactions that extend outside the classroom, I would HIGHLY recommend a different college.
