Quotes straight from our students:

Rasmussen College opened many doors for me. Not only did I learn the skills to make myself successful in the work place, but I also gained an amazing support system that will help me long after graduation. Rasmussen College gave me the flexibility I needed by offering online courses. This helped me move through my program without giving up things that are important to me.

-- Donnie Murphy

I thought attending college wasn’t an option for me. With two children and a full time job, I could not find the time or energy to fit one more thing into my schedule. Last year, I decided if I did not commit to going back to college, I never would. I started with Rasmussen Online last year and have loved every minute of it. The flexible schedule works with my lifestyle and I have found the time and energy for everything in my life. I find it very rewarding to be back in college. I love being a student at Rasmussen College!!

-- Elizabeth Anticona

Rasmussen is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to learn. I still remember my first time talking to the staff at Rasmussen; they made me feel like one of the family. I am 41 years old and it feels great to go back to school at a late age, and not be looked down upon. Rasmussen has helped me to regain my confidence and overcome my fears.

-- John F, Banks Sr.

I cannot say enough good things about the online program. I am a married mother of two little boys, and I also work a full time job so flexibility is extremely important to me. By taking all of my classes online, I can study during the day, late at night, or anywhere in between. I never thought I'd be able to juggle work and my kids, and still manage to find time for school. I have been able to accomplish goals that once never seemed possible!

-- Desire Hall

Rasmussen College gave me the option of attending school at night, so I can earn a degree in IT. For a person who is employed full time, that is very important. The staff at the school is friendly and helpful, and I really enjoy being on the campus and attending classes. I would recommend Rasmussen to all people that are looking for alternatives in getting a degree.

-- Nikolay Chalakov

I came to Rasmussen because I realized that I needed a better education, and job in order to keep up with the demanding world. Rasmussen provides the resources I need to stay firm and encouraged. Some people thought that I wouldn't succeed, but I proved them wrong with the excellent grades I have been making. I always thought I was smart, but Rasmussen helped me prove it to family, friends, and
myself.

-- Maria Shayman

I ‘m really happy with the coursework, the teachers, and especially the college staff who have been extremely helpful and seem to have a genuine concern to help. Initially, it took a lot of self-motivation for me to go to Rasmussen - mainly because I didn't want to risk not being unable to keep up with or stay motivated to do my coursework, but I am really glad I did. It’s probably one of the best decisions I've made in my life. I really like the online option. Since I began this past summer, I've actually moved to a different part of the state and it didn't affect my classes a bit.

-- Harlan Allison

I was happy to find that Rasmussen College was just the right school for me. I’ll be one of the first students to complete the Massage Therapy program at the new Eden Prairie campus, and the small class sizes are amazing. Rasmussen College has opened my eyes to the fact that it is possible for me to do everything I want to do in the
future.

-- Elizabeth Dahlheimer

I chose Rasmussen College because the small class sizes they offer make it possible to work one-on-one with instructors more easily, and I am better able to interact and learn with other students. I enjoy taking classes at the campus and working with my classmates on projects. I also enjoy the fact that the schedules are very flexible, which allows me to work and go to school at the same time.

-- Brian Andrews

I chose Rasmussen because it had everything I wanted. I'm already a supervisor on my post, and I wanted to find a way to learn more so I could help fellow soldiers. I like being able to go online anytime I want to be able to access my classes.

-- Mary Ogden

I just finished my first quarter as an online student, and I love it! I work at my own pace and go to class when I want, and that really works out with my schedule! I am pregnant with my second baby, so the flexibility of taking classes online really helps!

-- Vanessa Sharpe

I liked the small classes, and being able to ask for help whenever I need it. I would recommend this school to any of my friends, because so far my experience has been
wonderful.
