Rochester Community and Technical College is an amazing school. I always enjoy going to class because the teachers and students are all very wonderful. I am from a very small town, and the class sizes on campus are perfect for me. All of my teachers have all been very helpful and hands-on. If I ever have a problem in a class, I can send an email to my teacher, and they are very helpful and understanding to what my problem is. I absolutely love being on campus because there is always something going on, but I can also always find a quiet place to study, and there is always help on campus if I ever need it.
RCTC is a great school to help traditional and non-traditional students get acquainted with college life and academics at college level. I appreciate the affordability and the overall culture of the college. RCTC is not only a starter college, but they are expanded their program options and partnering with other schools to really help the students attending reach degrees beyond associates.
The experience at rochester is calm and serine. I feel like i am away in my own world but still in a smaller version of the cities. The people are all friendly but mostly stay to themselves and theres plenty to do and eat around. Overall the school is a good choice for someone who wants to be on their own and is just stepping into adult life.
I am attending in the Fall 2018 and I am extremely excited to start my classes and meet new people. Also excited to meet my professors and hopefully make a good bond with them. Excited to attend activities and clubs. I'm looking forward to join the security club my second year for students majoring in Law Enforcement. I am looking forward to everything except the bills.

I have always loved to do everything that I posssibly could. My most important advice would be to not take on too much at once. I love to do music and theater, but sometimes sacrifices have to be made. Keeping care of yourself first and foremost is very curcial to staying healthy physically and mentally. If things are getting out of hand, take a break and step back. Being realistic in what one person can do is a great step. Work ahead at every possible given moment. This gives you more time to have fun and goof around. When there isn't time to enjoy life, then that takes the fun experience out of college. Remember to work hard, time manage your activities, and most importanly, have fun.
My school is so diverse and everyone seems to get along. Before attending this college, I wasn't used to being around so many different people. It's great to see so many people of different backgrounds get along. Not only that, but my school participates in the "Purple Plus" program where you can receive an associates degree before you receive your bachelors using the credits from your associate degree.
My classmates are genreally quiet and respectful.
The best thing about my school is that there are many different types of people from all over the US and it's cool to talk to them and get to know them. What I'm saying can be the best thing about any school, but the best thing I would say from my experience at RCTC is that you get to meet a lot of good people. I've met people that have a totally different perspective of life from me and I learn from them that there is a lot of learning to do.
The kind of person that should not attend this college are students how don't want to be going to school and just don't care about school. You need to be willing to learn to actually learn. The professors don't have to teach you and their not going to make you do the homework; it's your money going down the drain. In this world no one can afford to waist away thier money. Just pay attentioin but if your not going to at least try to learn then there is no sence in attending college.
I brag about the affordable cost and the variety of student life activities. According to the average college or university, RCTC is very affordable for students. The school works with the state to have cheaper tuition. Aside from sports, there is a student life group for almost every topic and major. There is something for every student to be involved in.
Being a combination of 2 schools in 1 location, RCTC offers a plethora of majors, sports, clubs, and other extracurricular activies in order for every student to have a true college experience at an affordable price.
RCTC is best known for the nursing programs. The Mayo Clinic is located about 15 minutes from the school and RCTC has programs for nursing that help students get a job in the clinic, which also helps the Rochester community. The teachers teaching those classes are also very professional in a sense that they know what they are talking about and can explain it fully. RCTC is also known for their collaboration with Winona State University. To get a 4 year degree, students are able to transfer to Winona State straight from RCTC through programs that interwhine with both colleges.
The one thing that I wish I would have known is that roomates are not always going to be your friends. Just hope that you get a good rommate.
