I am a current student here at James A Rhodes State College and my overall experience has been a good one. I have started to attend his school in 2012. We are not a big university that has a lot going on, I see this school as a networking straight to the point school. By that I mean, there is not a lot of extra curricular activities offered here but we do promote events that will help you excel in your program of choice. When I first started here I started as a Nursing Student and my adviser has always stayed in close contact with me to make sure that I was on tract with everything. As I began to realize that nursing was not my passion she helped me find a new major that suited my passion. Now I am a business major and I love it. On top of that the classroom sizes are small enough for you to connect with your fellow classmates as well as you professor. At James A Rhodes State College you are able to build strong relationships with your professors and classmates because professors usually teach more than one class in your major and the students you are in class with are usually in the same major as you and are taking the same classes. If you are looking to focus solely on your major and want to build strong relationships then I think James A Rhodes State College would be the best choice here in Lima, Ohio.

I have known I wanted to go to James A. Rhodes State College majoring in Allied Health with an Associate Degree in Dental Hygiene since I was 14 years old. The campus is a perfect size for me because I have met new people from all over the surrounding areas but it is not too big that I don't even know half the people in my classes. There are many activities to get involved on campus from clubs to intramural sports out on the quad. James A. Rhodes State College has a friendly environment where it's safe to walk to and from class and through the parking lot at any time of the day. The instructors are always available with their office hours and they actually take the time to get to know you so you feel like you're important in their class. I recommend this college for anyone who wants to graduate with their intended degree on time.

I think that James A Rhodes State College is a great college especially for College Credit Plus Classes. I would probably not go there if I were not taking college credit plus classes, but since I am, I will graduate high school with my associate degree. Thank you so much James A Rhodes State College!

  10. What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

    The most frustrating thing about my school is the distance you have to walk. It is so cold in the winter time and half the time you r lucky enough to get a close enough parking spot and you have to park even farther from your intened building. You have to leave so early just to get a close enough parking spot but that dont always mean you will. In the winter time its so cold and walking the long distances with all those books in the cold is not easy.
