What Students Are Saying

The difficulty of a class typically depends on the teacher as well as the subject. You will be expected to do a lot more reading in shorter time periods, but you also will have more time to get it done. Plan your class schedule accordingly. The class difficulty depends on the teacher as well. When you sign up for classes ask around and see what people think of different professors!
Heather
Nursing School and Medical Imaging school are both the hardest programs to get into at RIC.
Jessie from Cranston, RI
Academics are good here. The classes are challenging. Most of the professors are good but you will occasionally get a professor that is not very enjoyable.
Jade from Pawtucket, RI
The teachers are very nice, and a few of them offer after class help. This extra help can definitely be taking advantage of if you want to be on track of your studies to better your grades.
