DON'T GO TO RENTON TECHNICAL COLLEGE!!I waste my time and my money for this stupid school. They take your money and they don't tecah you any thing. Teachers are lazy and they read the book for you.I could read a book on my own and not pay for it. Tests you will take will be is from other teachers(pre made tests). You have to be very smart to pass.

I went during Covid (2020) and took online classes. Going to RTC was the worst decision of my life. The advisors are nothing more than lip service, used cars salesmen. This school just wants your money and they dont care about your future. they brag about their outreach and helping the community. dont buy into it. Go to Highline or any other school

Stay away from this school. It sucks, and the instructors suck! all of them. They seem nice at first, but they are not fair in there grading system and they are a firm believer in favoritism. If you are one of the instructors favorite, you can be late everyday and still pass with perfect attendance. Crazy! worst college I have been to. Caution!

the school has fail all students this is not a school to go to because i understand the college known as a highbased school meaning teachers act like highschool rules not like real college rules this why students are failing because security cameras around the school and even in classrooms this also the mark high 100% fail rating

If you want to attend this school, you should be very familiar with middle school dictation. Be ready to understand "time out" and "no-no's". They try and teach you how to study and really don't have there head on Straight. The Associate & dean of Allied health always beleaguer the students and tell them they should be studying. Juvenile!!!!!

Ugh. Don't bother going here. Go elsewhere. If you're a student, and pay for tuition, you should be able to use a printer, right? Nope, they turn the printers off on the weekends, even though classes are in session.

I would not recommend this school if your interested in the allied health programs. They barely have instructors to teach. The instructors that they do have make and change the rules as the quarters go. Very unstructured and unorganized

Took H&P classes to get into nursing school. The instructors were late getting the grades in and I had to push very hard for the instructor to release my grades so I did not have to wait another semester to start. The instructor had 10 days after the semester ended to get the grades in and our class only had 10 people. I would not go back.
