Academics

Rose is a very tough school, but everyone here wants you to succeed and is willing to do whatever they can to help you.

If you thought high school was hard, this is like high school on steroids and then some. You have to be brave enough to ask questions, whether it's in class, out of class, or just asking other people in your residence hall. The professors are super nice and will almost always be willing to answer questions. I have not yet had a professor not willing to help me out (and I've been through 4 quarters).

Classes are hard, there's no getting around that. Don't assume any class is going to be an easy A because, odds are, it's not going to be like that.

Very demanding, but very do-able! Always manage your time in order to get things done so that you will have extra time to have fun!

You have to want to succeed if you come here. You have to have a goal in mind and the will to work towards it. Otherwise, you are just wasting your time and money. If you want an easy college, Rose is not for you.
