You should come here if you really want a college education, but if you are just looking to party during college you will have a tough time here. The professors are serious about you learning and being prepared to go into the world. The classes are small so they know you-no fooling. They mean it when they give you the diploma--you have earned it!!

Great college. Top notch faculty and staff who really care about the students. There are great things to do. Already this year we have had great concerts and plays, wonderful speakers, and great athletics. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for an academic community.
Bad reviews
Overall 1.2
Classes are overly difficult with limited help from professors.administration and the student body clash repeatedly & can't handle the school financially. Dorms= filthy, especially the bathrooms. RDs and RAs have become increasingly unhelpful. Once the renowned RMWC, Randolph has now become one of the worst, most overpriced colleges

Absolutely the worst school in the country. Comes off amazing place for the first two years and then once you're stuck there, academics become impossible and the teachers become unhelpful, rude and overwhelming with the work. Im surprised more people don't quit altogether.food=disgusting,cockroaches everywhere, students=weird rude disrespectful
