The biggest impact of my RRU experience was the increased confidence I have in myself.

The blended learning model of the on-campus residencies and online study at RRU is great. The residency provides an opportunity to make friends, see and experience the campus, and learn from other students about ‘being’ a student.

During the residency, you have the ability to focus primarily on school because you can stay on campus for the duration of your residency. After your residency, the balance between family, online courses and work begins. The great thing about the online courses is having a continuous connection with the other students and your instructors, and being able to participate each week when it fits your schedule.

The biggest impact of my RRU experience was the increased confidence I have in myself. I started gaining more confidence early in my RRU education, and this boost came from sticking with the program, being successful in my courses and discovering that I ‘could’ do it."
