Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

Great school to go to for undergrad. Professors and instructors are easily accessible and friendly. Three quarters in an academic year which means course workload can be heavy and midterms/finals can happen in a very short and consecutive timeline. It is a course focus school, which means that research opportunities and resources, on the other hand, are limited. Cafeteria is quite bad. I went to a bigger university and realized how bad those food provided by Bon Appetit was. Still, can't believe it has been three years since I graduated.

Honest Review: This is the absolute most wonderful place to be miserable as a student. It's a beautiful small campus full of mostly wonderful people. The academics are completely insane and demanding, but the campus life is outstanding (I mean, weekly housekeeping and tight-knit dorm floors? Come on. It's awesome. It's easy to make friends even if you're weird.). And there is always someone to help you if you get stuck on coursework, whether it be professor or fellow peer. This is not a place for the weak spirited. They say you have to go through hell to get to heaven. I guess that's why we students go here. Do you want a secure, guaranteed job with an awesome salary? Spend the next four years of your life here in sweet, blissful agony with a bunch of like-minded nerds, and it'll all be worth it.

I attended Rose-Hulman a number of years ago, getting a Computer Engineering degree. I disconnected from Rose for a while at the beginning of my career, but have reengaged with Rose recently. While I do not directly use much of my engineering education given that I am more of a businessperson today, the experience I gained at Rose in how to think, how to learn, and how to figure things out in my job and in life in general was invaluable. While I did not love it while there, especially given how hard it was, I am very grateful for the opportunity to have graduated from Rose. After reconnecting recently, and being on campus again a few times, it is EASY to see that it is a great school. The brain power there among both the faculty and students is amazing. A great school! I would highly recommend it!

I can't say enough about this excellent school. I see kids with degrees all the time that don't seem to be very prepared for the working world but Rose Hulman truly prepares their students with a combination of knowledge and hands on experience. Our son is excelling on his internship job and will graduate next year with even greater ability. No wonder this school is rated so high.

Some of the best 4 years of my life. Challenging education but well worth it in the long run. The best part is the work Rose does to help you get a job and networking opportunities with alumni, however the tuition is getting out of hand..

I went here for 2 years when I realized engineering wasn't really for me. I made better friends here though than I had at home and I to this day go and see them. If you know you want to be an engineer, this is a place to strive to get to. They will challenge you and make you learn but will be there every step. The only bad thing about rose is it can be so rough on people that they overstressed and it may seem like nobody is there to help. Once you get over the fear of asking for help, you will be able to succeed.

An outstanding school. Academically tougher than nails, but there is an ample amount of tutoring help or one on one time with professors if you get in a bind. I'd recommend it in a heart beat, but it's not for the fright of heart.
