Good reviews
Overall 4.1
Very happy with my RMCAD experience. I am a student in the 3D Animation program and the professors are very insightful, experienced, and CARE! You are not another number or statistic. Opportunities at the school are not handed to you, you make them yourself, which is important for life! The community is very friendly like on any small campus.

Going on my 4th semester (online only). It sometimes feels like the instructors have NO IDEA what they are doing. Most of them don't show they care and take days to reply to an email, which is detrimental when the course is only 8 weeks, and the assignments are due every week. academic advisors never reply back either. Feels like no one cares here.

I'm not getting the education I'm paying for. I've met a few great people but otherwise my experience has been horrible.

Very inconsistent.
Overall 1.8
Online, my experience has been up and down. Inappropriate assignments, professors that don't care, and MANY registrar/financial aid issues. However, everything has been sorted out on that end. Other than those unfortunate moments, the online experience has been great. Can study on my own time, live wherever.... Most professors try, ass. are easy.
