    Go to class. If you don't you will not succeed. RIT is a great school, it supports its students academically and also socially. There are many events and clubs, it all depends on what you want to do. Make sure you utilize the facilities and take advantage of every resource you can. Enjoy your time here, it will be a long 5 years, but it will go by quick.

    Although the weather can be a turnoff, it is best to visit before you write off this school. Even though the weather was miserable when I went, I really enjoyed my time. And if you do go into the tunnels beneath the school, take a guide; most anyone would get lost down there!

    There's a lot of shut-ins, make sure you aren't one of them! To put it simple, you have to get out of the dorm and go meet people, there's so much to do on campus.

The goal of this college to make all students be a well rounded educated person no matter what their major is.
