Reply to comment by deadl0ckx2 in Why does Rhode Island College have such a negative reputation? Is it that bad? by PinkSwallowLove

It’s actually known for its education department. Historically was also a commuter school (and probably still is somewhat) so if you want the stereotypical residential college life and D1 sports this isn’t it. But is way cheaper.

Yeah education, art/music, and a lot of humanities are way better at RIC. When I was at URI, it was clear they had invested approximately $0 in anything that wasn’t STEM, student housing, or communications (for some reason).

It's still very much so a commuter school. The dorms are highly underutilized, which does cause some financial pressure I would wager
