University of Rio Grande Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

It depends which field you are going into i had trouble with scheduling some classes.Had to have certain classes, grade point average, at least 21 on ACT, then you can apply to the school of Education. There is the rio run around where you have to go to more than one person to get a question answered and you have to stay on top of stuff you want done. It really depends on the day, time of day, and what they are serving. I've had great experiences and bad, but never a absolutely horrible day. To high Priced

I wish I had known that the professors were easy to work with and that I would have no problem finding a group of friends to be a part of. I wish I had known what tpes of campus activities were taking place here at this college. Before I started attending, I was worried that I might not be able to make friends on campus. I was also worried about how the schoolwork was based on a level of how challenging it is. The schoolwork is fine,but I was worried before I attended.

I wish I had known about jobs in the area and how they treat college students - such as letting them off early so they can study or keeping them late because they are needed.

Francis

There is nothing here on the weekends. Most of the students are commuters so if you live in a dorm and are fair away from home you better get ue to being bored or doing school work.

Joshua

I wish I had known more about the severe inadequacy of its administration and some of its professors. While some of the professors are very good, many are highly inadequate on several levels, but not nearly as much as the majority of its administration. I also wish I had known that I would not be eligible for much financial aid.

I wish I had known that the tuition was going to be the same all 4 years and not cheap and then jump up 4 times as much.
