Did learn a lot | I learned a lot. The teachers are very supportive and assist you in numerous ways. |
Did enjoy being here | I love it. I definitely want to graduate from Rio Salado. |
Bang for the buck | I was awarded financial aid. I do know that they have a system where they publish their own text books, allowing students discounts on their textbooks. |
Tips for prospective students | Definitely well organized online curriculum. They have been involved with online learning for quite some time. |
Great for these types of students | Mothers, and fathers. People that are employed or a homemaker can work online when they have time or can print a lot of the syllabus and work on their courses without being glued to your operating system. |

In three sentences | I love Rio I get to complete college on my time. I am a mother, a full time employee, and a full time student and even have time for a social life. Rio makes all this possible with their flexibility of online classes. |
Tips for prospective students | Take a College Preparation class, it sound silly but it was so worth it. It is also important to take at least one fun class a semester. It is kind of like a reward for taking classes that are required. |
Academic Rigor | Study hard not you might not this opportunity later. |
Dorm Life | Nope. Live at home in my own place |
Food and Dining | Eat where ever you want this is an online college. |
What to do for fun | What ever you wnat the classes are basically 24 hours a day. |
Bang for the buck | The school is able to provide Rio only text books this means that they can be claimed on the tax return 100% and then the other books that are not Rio books can be rented. |
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus | Rio longe. An online cafe |
Great for these types of students | Very busy and self motivated students |
Campus Safety | This college is as safe as your life is. |
