I will be attending RIT Fall 2018 as a Computer Science student. Any tips/advice? Also incoming students comment as well, and your major.
Son is attending in the fall as well, Software engineering from CT. We’ve visited twice and it was a close call between RIT and Stevens Institute of Tech. Both gave good scholarships but SIT was still much more $ (although location was great).
Not sure he wants to dorm in the CS or Engineering house. Filled out general roommate form instead of finding one on FB. A big concern was the male/female ratio but neighbor who graduated a few years back met his wife there, so no worries. But much more snow/wind so get a good coat (yes, mother’s advice!) The dorms can be a long cold walk from Oct-Apr and the tunnels don’t connect academic side to dorms. Also, hear that parking is an issue, so arrive early to class to find a spot for sophomore year on if you bring a car. Book your flight home if you live far away for Thanksgiving. If you wait until Aug, Sept the $ is much more. The airport is only 10 min from RIT. There is no class on Wed before FYI. Good luck to you and congrats!
My daughter will be in the class of 2022 Film and Animation Major
My Son is also a proud member of the Class of 2022. He is majoring in Computer Engineering.
