The website is not very informative. I did take a speech class and the professor never emailed back or ever, ever updated us with our grades. I now am going to RVC for medical coding and it says absolutely nothing about pre reqs, pretty important to know. When I called the woman was from the 'catalog or course schedule' phone number was very rude to me, told me i can register "in October" and told me i had about four pre reqs and pretty much was no help. I then called the general number , the girl was nicer, put me on hold and I was now told I only have two pre reqs. Its tough to get an app. with a counselor if you have a life and can't just get into any random time slot. So i'll probably have to just go up there one day and try to figure it out. I searched high and low on their website for this info it is not there. online, it looks like you can just get right in to the program (most other programs at least list pre reqs so you can be informed). Would be nice if this info for that class was online (somewhere!) and if the people were more informative, helpful and acted like they actually cared about giving you the CORRECT INFO (kinda important). whenever I call, everyone acts like they don't want to help. I am unsure if this is normal for colleges but I was upset that I couldn't get the correct simple info Fri, 12 Oct 2012 04:54:24 GMT http://www.studentsreview.com/IL/RVC_comments.html StudentsReview: Negative Review about RVC for PreMed and Medicalhttp://www.studentsreview.com/IL/RVC_comments.html Their website is so convoluted and confusing it will make you crazy.

Communication is not good because they don't return phone calls and rarely respond to emails. The two guidance counselors I spoke with acted as if they were so disinterested and indifferent it was a waste of time, and it was like pulling teeth to get all of the information necessary. The Biology class I just finished required a textbook - teacher never had us open it once...big waste of money. I would not recommend this college.

They are a joke!!. The classes are too easy I'm get 100% A's with little to no effort whats so ever. Heck don't even try to email them if you have a question, 95% of the time you will not get a answer (especially if its a online class!!!). After acing my recent class, which directly dealt with the career path I am interested in, there was a offer for a internship to a local firm. My Prof said send him a resume and he would get back to me about more details. Can you guess what happened next???. You got it no response, none. I got a 100% A in the class!!!. So now all that money was wasted on these classes because of a bad mouthing professor. You ask why is he a bad mouthing Professor, because I emailed my info directly to the firm that was offering the internships. Can you guess what happen next?? nothing, no response whatsoever, yet this firm has a ad on Craigslist for those very positions.

The teachers are all very nice and helpful, but the office staff? Complete joke! Everything I have needed them for they have managed to mess it up terribly and cause a major headache! If you love waiting and dealing with ignorant people you'll love the rock valley office staff. Classes are super easy... Academic advisors suck..and its terribly hard to get an appointment at a decent time.. The internet has way better info than they do. I feel terrible for my nice professors who have to put up with rock valleys constant bs.. Even the teachers say it.

I am of average intelligence and I find the classes to be easier than my high school classes. I moved here from out-of-state (IOWA) and I am disgusted with Rockford and Rock Valley College. I will say, their faculty is very friendly and helpful, but the work is too easy and if you need any financial aid at all, forget it. They've messed mine up so bad that my parents just paid for it out of their pockets. I will be transferring out as soon as possible. Worst College Experience EVER. If I stayed there I would be in no way shape or form prepared for a 4 year school. Tue, 25 Oct 2011 12:46:10 GMT http://www.studentsreview.com/IL/RVC_comments.html
