I'm currently a running start student, so being in a college level class is new to me. Although I was very nervous on my first day, most staffs and classmates were very nice. RTC offers a lot of online classes which I was skeptical about taking because I thought it would be hard without having a professor teaching you in person, yet the experience was quite easy! The professors made everything easy to understand and they always reply to my messages within 24 hours. The classroom size is small, so I was able to have a more one-on-one relationship with my professor. Overall, I wouldn't choose this school again only because they don't offer a lot of science classes.
I love online classes! RTC has this online instruction website were you have classes and view grades call "Canvus." It's very easy to use and a great way to contact your professors. The workload is fair, and you have do the assignment anytime you want, just make sure it's before the due date. Online classes is great for me because I like to get my work done a few days ahead and save time. The professors and students are all very engaging and it's fun having class discussions every week.
In the events so far, the president Kevin McCarthy has sent out multiple reassuring emails to ensure all students feel safe and comfortable. There are many group events that are informative and inclusive. School is located close to many stores and food places which is convenient, but the cafe the school has is quite delicious and affordable. The professors I've encountered are helpful and want to see you succeed. When I have questions and feel unsure of what classes I should be taking for my degree the advisors were readily available to assist me.
