"Two words come to mind when I think of Rockford University: opportunity and community. Faculty and staff go above and beyond to ensure that each student has access to success. A 10:1 student to faculty ratio makes this possible. I transferred to RU from an out of state school. I was immediately welcomed into a diverse community of people who truly cared for me. I may have never finished my bachelor's degree if I did not attend Rockford University. So, thank you, RU!"
