Wow, where to begin.

You know what, there are far too many negative aspects to this school to list them all here. Hence, I will try to summarize, concentrating heavily on the social aspect of the school. If you are the type of person whose entire life is academics (no social life, no parties, no friends besides acquaintances that have personalities that are equally as boring as yours), or the type of person that likes to have no voice in any on-campus affairs, you will be warmly welcomed at RIT. There's a reason why the word "college" is not in the school's title. Every preconceived notion that you might have of college being the best time of your life will be shattered. Fraternities and sororites are being phased out, the only parties allowed are… oh, wait a minute there's no alcohol allowed on campus (punishable by academic suspension, and parties with alcohol in the off campus apartments are heavily enforced by Campus Safety, especially freshmen (as if to catch them before they get used to enjoying themselves)). Personally I can't wait to get out of this place, and I wouldn't wish that sort of feeling on anyone who's in their third year of "college". Do not come to RIT.

Thanks for reading, and take my advice to heart, because it comes straight from MY heart.
