I cannot speak highly enough about the Rockford University Spanish department. My classes were energetic, motivating and full of opportunities to develop and refine my language skills, which led me to a successful career in teaching Spanish.

Rockford University was the only school to which I applied. It was the only school I wanted to attend.

When I was away from the campus, I missed having my own work space and the guidance from faculty that Rockford University offers its students.

I was looking for a smaller college with a community vibe. What impressed me the most was how different the campus is - the woods, the trails, the wildlife, and the close proximity to restaurants and shopping.

I come from a small town where it is common to be in small classes and develop lasting relationships with your teachers. I felt I could get that kind of education at Rockford University.

My professors are amazing instructors. They all seem to show a deep passion for literature and learning, and really seem to get involved in class discussions.

During my senior year at Rockford University I had the opportunity to attend Unified Professional Theatre Auditions, a huge audition looking for new talent. As a result of that, I was invited to audition and ultimately got a role for Cats.

The MAT program at Rockford University offers an excellent education to students and ties the information to the community we live in as well as facilitating local clinical and student teaching placements.

I chose to attend RU because of its close proximity to my home and because Rockford gave me the opportunity to study abroad.

A plus to Rockford University is the diversity of students, including on-campus, commuter, nontraditional and international. The student experience is enhanced by this diversity, both in the classroom and through extra curricular activities.

The Latin program played a major part in my decision to attend Rockford University. My aunt, who is an alumna, told me how Rockford University changed her life, and I wanted it to change mine, too.

I chose Rockford University because I wanted to attend a college where I would be able to experience personalized class experience and a more one-on-one relationship with professors.

I still find that I use the knowledge I gained in the Rockford University classrooms years ago in my own classrooms today.

I chose Rockford for a number of reasons; one of the main reasons being the opportunity to study abroad.
