Depending on the major you might be able to get away with going to RIC. People give that school a hard time but my major actually had a great program compared to some others i’ve heard stories from

Thanks for your comment. I love that you brought up RIC, it is another school that I am considering too. I’m curious, why does RIC draw such negative reactions from people?

Some people experience an extra year or two cause major advisors don’t have student pick the correct classes for the semester/ comes to spring semester and you have to take a class you can only get in the fall I can only speak from my experience my major helped us a lot.

When i went i think ric was about 8k off campus What i hear is that the admin offices for some majors don’t do a good job helping students. In terms of getting correct credits transferred, making sure students have a graduation plan / which classes they have to take and when. I can obviously only speak from my experience i had a great time at ric.

RIC is a great value. You get essentially the same education, less partying, and considerably less debt.
