The program provided valuable practical skills that allowed me to feel confident as I embarked on this new career.

Throughout my academic journey, RIT provided me with a nurturing environment that stimulated my personal and professional growth. In this environment, I was able to build meaningful relationships with both peers and faculty members that extend beyond the academic sphere. These relationships are likely to remain a valuable source of support, mentorship, and friendship in the years to come.
