Absolutely a solid school, despite the divide between RH and LC (The two main campus) LC has a lot more close to it and gives you a true feel of NYC from inside an island of calm. The facilities are nice, and you can get a lot of clubs, as well as some very solid teachers!

BEST SCHOOL!!!!! Community is amazing— so easy to make friends. Professors are amazing and its so nice to be in a small little school in the great big city. Location is amazing and the school gives you so many opportunities. You will learn SO MUCH and be very well rounded. I transferred from NYU and it was the best decision ever.

It is not the best school.The school is awful
Overall 1.8
Unless you're interested in feminism and social justice, don't come here. The school is quite small, very clique-oriented, and is closer to a high school experience than a college one with no discernible campus. My single greatest regret in college has been not going to the Rose Hill campus. On the plus side, you cannot beat the location.
Overall 1.9
The students are generally pretty aloof, not academically driven, and rude. There is NO social scene and it feels like a commuter school since everyone goes to their classes and disperses. As a freshman, it was extremely difficult to make friends here. The only thing the school has to offer is the small (18 max) class sizes and the location.
Overall 2
Not worth going into debt for. This school cares far more about prestige than its students and staff.
They will tell you there are so many internship opportunities, when they don't seem to help you to find them. Clubs are lacking, and the school feels like a social jail at some points. There's no 24 hour library either!
