classes were extremely poor quality. I have received much higher quality at a state tech school for much cheaper. do not waste the money. I graduated in 2008, maybe it has improved since then.

I only attended classes online so I’m not sure how they are in person but it was too confusing. I only had one teacher who was caring and actually taught us while the other would give us assignments that had nothing to do with the chapters she wanted us to read. I had a family emergency towards the end and the teacher who didn’t. Make sense basically failed me because I was having a hard time even though she told me to do the best I could. I had an advisor reach out to me at the end and I tried to contact them back and they wouldn’t respond. I’m supposed to be attending a class now and they’ve been messaging me back to back about one assignment I missed because it wasn’t clear when classes started for the next quarter. I’m dropping and I’m done with it. I had better help from my advisor at a university with more students. The woman who helped me enroll has been an amazing person and that’s the only thing that was good about the experience besides 1 out of 2 of my teachers being amazing. I just felt so brushed off until they felt like they wanted to work with me and that’s not okay.

Worst school

I am a current nursing student at Rasmussen and I can not wait to be done with this school. The curriculum is a waste of time and money for LPN students going for their RN. Students are required to be flexible for scheduling, the school does not care about the students home or work life. Students are supposed to get schedules 4 weeks in advance when in reality you get a completed schedule days after the quarter starts. If Rasmussen wants to hold the students accountable for our attendance and actions they should do the same. Students start classes clueless about testing, classes, clinicals, and labs. The guidance counselors are typically never readily available to talk with students face to face. We pay thousands of dollars to go to a college that could care less about the students.

The school is great and the teachers are so helpful! Only complaint would be the last minute scheduling. Letting students know the first day of a semester their schedule is ridiculous especially if you have a job or kids!

Lack of communication

Its expensive. Communication is little and far between. Paid for classes I didnt have time for and failed because no one was listening. I had asked before even signing up if they would work with me and my schedule. Nope. Nope nope run.

Anyone looking to attend online classes this is by far the best school to attend. While only some of the programs are offered online the outline of the classes and expectations are very easy to understand and maintain. I enjoyed my time at Rasmussen, the instructors care about your success, and if you have questions or need help they are more than helpful! Thank you Rasmussen for helping me achieve my career goals!

The college is good

The college is good. Not sure about on campus life but being an online learning student - they just forget you exist. I only hear from my advisor if I reach out to her. I have been 4.0 GPA for a straight year and have not had one person reach out and say congratulations or anything. Other colleges I have attended would send honor certificates and ceremonies at least quarterly.

Haven't even started yet and thumbs up!

I have not started school yet and already feel confident I will succeed. The staff has been very attentive, prompt and individualized. There has been a lot to navigate in just 3 weeks, and it has all happened without a hitch. I am looking forward to my classes knowing I will not just be a number thrown into the deep end to fend for myself.

Great Experience and Saved Money

I've gone to traditional college before, wish I had know about Rasmussen.

I was an online student but whether you are or not, this college give you everything you need to SUCCESSFULLY graduate.

They have in house AND out source tutoring available for individual classes. My previous college (which cost so much more) would have trouble finding students or teachers to tutor me.

Another amazing thing is the Personal Support Center (PSC) which is available 24/7 for technology and login questions or concers.

Rasmussen is also one of the few colleges that offers a bachelor's in Cyber Security in a fully online format.

If cost is a concern for you, I recommend Rasmussen as it is one of the most cost effective and well set colleges out there.
Rasmussen is a program based college so for the four years you spend you get an associate's AND a bachelor's!!!

Definitely recommend.

They have campuses if you are intrested as well as fully online programs.

From the first time I walk through the…

From the first time I walked through the door until I graduated two weeks ago, my experience at Rasmussen has been top-notch. The support from the instructors, and the campus staff has been phenomenal. I kind of have an inside track as I work as a Work study/library assistant, and the help that I get from the librarians plus the knowledge that I gained from working as a work-study, has made my experience at Rasmussen the best ever. I graduated from high school over 50 years ago, and I did not think that I would be able to do as well as I did when I first started my classes. I was wrong. I did so well that I am now beginning my Bachelor’s program at the end of the month. I highly recommend Rasmussen College to anybody that is thinking about going to school to try to further their education.
