Detailed Ratings

The College of Saint Rose was a great experience academically. As a commuter, I found that there were less resources for networking with students available and the parking was horrible! I understand that the parking situation has since improved with the construction of a parking garage and expanded parking lots. I valued the technology and equipment available for students use. I majored in Environmental Affairs and found that the resources and courses available in the sciences well surpassed other schools I'd attended. The professors were knowledgeable and generally very helpful and available, the main campus was nice and modern. The academics were challenging and rewarding .
