A cut above any community college in the area. Also a draw for students from around the country
Overall 4.5
Rctc is a great way to get a solid education without having to take out $10,000 a semester loans. The professors and other faculty are wonderful. I’m proud to be a student here. The only thing I would change is the price of food! We are college students, we should not have to pay 7 or 8 dollars for a hamburger.
Overall 4.5
Rctc is a great college to start a carrier, most of teacher are very helpful, there are a lot of resources available to help person succeed, the science learning center is excellent, and the math learning center. All you get to do is ask for help and everyone are will to step up and help.

Great School to go to I general. Its highlights were the math and sciences; as well as, all day tutoring on campus. Perfect launch pad for strong enthusiastic students and those even those struggling to get by.

This school is really nice and calm. Most of the staff are amazing and kind. It definitely has a small-town school vibe because it's so small. Rochester is a decent-sized town but this part of town is smaller. The campus has two sections which can be annoying but transport is free for students. Overall a great school!

I love that it is quiet and has the small town kind of feel. (Which it is lol) I was initially going to go for a university but i'm very glad I didn't. Although I'd say, if you want that "College Experience" like environment with parties and lots of engagement with a robust school and social setting this might not be the best option for you.
Overall 4.1
Easy to navigate campus with lots of things to do. De-stress week is my favorite! They constantly have free food and activities for students to enjoy.

this place isn't a college it is a glorified high school. Meaning the kids are just that kids. They are immature and are to stupid to be at college and the college teaches at their level so kids graduate. If you are smart or try at your classes go to a college that will teach you and will challenge you.

just a basic community college. you have fees that you shouldn't have to pay. like social , etc... however they are unwilling to work with people that have full time jobs. night classes are few and not very many options. Also don't have many summer class options. not a very good school most of the professors are terrible very few that are decent.

DON'T GO HERE WORST COLLEGE EVER! This is the college to go to if you want your President stealing your money! Rochester Community and Technical College is also about to lose there accreditation! That means if you want to transfer after graduating from RCTC you will have to retake all of those classes!

High school, but paying for it! Some teachers are great while others are there for the failures of their primary career. Skip he associates and go to a 4-year immediately!
