Martin - 10/29/2019

While there is a lot to like about it, there are some aspects of it that I feel take it down a bit. In terms of positives, the school feels massive, there is a large number of classes and majors to be interested in, the professors there are easy to understand for the most part, and the area is always clean. In terms of negatives, the MyRMU website is annoying to use at times, the class schedule I have is lop-sided, and the CircleIn program that I have seems empty despite me earning points for prizes. Also, there is no cafeteria, though there are food services on Tuesdays and Wednesdays that make you pay for them while there are some vending machines that don't always work. Overall, RMU Illinois is a good school to be in, though I wish some aspects made more sense or weren't annoying to deal with.

Jared - 06/30/2019

A good opportunity to get great education and earn a variety of scholarships. The accelerated degree program and location make getting a job after graduation easier. There is not a social life at the school but there are several teams to be apart of.

Ashley - 06/18/2019

  7. What's unique about your campus?

    To me with having smaller classes you get more hands on experience in the culinary arts field. The professors are willing to show you what you need to do to get the recipe the way it should be and will give tips to make it look more elegant. They are also having us meet other people in are field to see what they are like and give us some ideas to what we could exspect. So far i had 2 field trips for my field and i enjoyed what i had learned from then and got a idea on things.

    The school seems very nice at first, they promise alot of help financially but don't deliver much help at all. The teachers were very good at the campus I went to (Springfield) but I was not impressed with the ones I had in DuPage, so I came back to Springfield. I was not satisfied with my overall finally knowledge gained from the school.
