The best feature of the University of Rio Grande is it's size. It is a small campus, built in a small town, surrounded by farmland. Since I am from a rural area, it was very much like home to me. It was a relief off my mind to be able to find my classes without getting lost. Even though it is small, it has a great sports complex, theater, and student center that is available to all students.

Christina

The best things about Rio Grande is the small class sizes. It nice to have small classes sizes because I feel like I learn so much more because of the one on one attention. I was really nervous about going to college and juggling playing soccer, running indoor/outdoor track working on the side and trying to have a social life. Rio made it easy, I made friends in the classrooms and on the soccer and track team and along with friendship came study buddies.
