Rider University Top Questions

Some of the best memories from Rider

The food is horrible but the is typical of a college. If you are living in a dorm then you HAVE To get the rip off meal plan. They just took the trays away which is suppose to save water but that also saves money and they did not lower the price. Rip off. Generally speaking Rider is not a bad school. HOWEVER, it is not the BEST value for your dollar.

There are a lot of things to do on campus and some may say people go home on the weekends, but there is so much to do there is no reason for that. I absolutely love it here and look forward for the next three years and hope it doesn't go by too fast.

There are definatly more girls than guys on campus. Half of those girls are probably 6's or better. Skipping class is tough because classes aren't that big, you can definatly still do it, but the professor will probably know, unless you are in a big class, then u don't need to go at all. Don't be shy and have a personality, do something with your life while you're at Rider. Don't go unnoticed and hide in your room all day. You only live once and life is wayyyy too short not to enjoy it.

Do you want a school that can cater to your being brought up a spoiled brat?

Rider University is an amazing school

Rider isn't for everyone, it has strong roots with many families and their kids were forced to go there, and don't like it very much. I walked on campus and knew this was the place for me, many other students didn't base there choice of a gut feeling and are not very happy where they are, and frequently transfer out

If i could do it over, I would transfer, or never have came here..I feel bad for people who decided on rider.

I LOVE RIDER!!!

Come in with an open mind and don't be afraid to talk to people. Then you'll be good as gold.

don't go there. especially if you are in the arts because they do not offer a decent variety of courses.

I HATED Rider my first 2 weeks i got here. I didnt know anyone so i made pb&j sandwichs because i refused to eat alone. I watched tv or played video games. But, after i got used to it, joined the hockey team, and started going out. I eventually loved it! It took me a couple years but i definatly found the kids that are just like me and i get along great with them. Just don't go home every weekend and make some friends around campus. I love Rider because it's small and I feel like I know everyone, or they know who I am at least. The parties are there too, don't think the alcohol policy stops anyone, because it doesn't. Rider can put up as many rules as they want... but its college, the kids own the school. We will find a way to party no matter what

Rider is not really known for science. Although there are various science majors, Rider is not known as a strong science school. In fact, Pre Med is only a minor. That is a tough hole to fill especially with the competition in that field. Although Rider may appear expensive on paper (alomst 40K tuition, room, and board) they are very generous with scholarships. You can get 18K for moderately high grades (3.5 GPA 1800 SAT) or lesser sums of 15K or 12K as your grades approach that mark. Come to Rider for a strong Business, arts, or education degree. You will meet some great people and some you can do without. The small community make you feel at home yet there are always new people to meet. You will be busy, have things to do, and not be bored at Rider.

Rider is definately a fun school. At first I didn't even wanna look at rider but once I did i absolutely loved it and still do.

I love Rider University.

I love Rider and am so glad I'm here.

It's decent.

Rider is doing its best to make the school as much like a police state as possible...

Go somewhere else.
