Student Spotlight

RIT is a good fit for me because of its phenomenal technology programs and the accommodations the college provides deaf and hard-of-hearing students, including interpreters, captionists, and notetakers. These access services allow me to interact in class without facing any communication barriers or challenges. Growing up in a mainstreamed environment as a deaf person, I wanted to learn more about my deaf identity and have the opportunity to be part of a deaf community. AT RIT, there are endless opportunities to get involved, and I’ve grown to learn more about myself than I ever knew.
