This school keeps blowing my mind every single day more and more, just yesterday after class I walked by this place and there was a sign that read Idea Lab, right away I was intrigued and sure enough when I went in there it was nothing short of fantastic! There you can use 3 3D printers and access to soldering tools! It's amazing I'm signing up today for the lab. And the school is just awesome! I took my fiancé and she asked me this is a community college and I said yeah, only the best one in Colorado! Highly recommended ! Staff is the best I have ever came across at a learning institution! If your a student working on your AS please highly consider this learning institution as your go to ! - Joaquin.
Do not trust Red Rocks Community College. Twice my wife was given a list of classes to complete for her degree and twice she fulfilled the requirements. Even their website said she was 100%. She walked in May and we never recieved her diploma. Now they say that their administration screwed up and she needs 5 more classes.
RRCC gave me the confidence & great education for learning in a way no other school could do for me. I was inspired to WANT to learn and almost 20 years later, I still love learning, have a Bachelors Degree from Webster University, own multiple properties & own & manage 2 businesses. Thank you Red Rocks!
I have been a student, a student employee, a non-student employee, and a full-time employee at Red Rocks Community College, so I think that means I LOVE it here! There are so many great programs and award winning students, along with many fun events and activities going on...you can't keep track of it all!
I just began working at Red Rocks Community College and I can already tell the faculty and staff are truly committed to helping students achieve their educational goals. I have worked at other colleges/universities where that isn't the case. Everyone, even the President, is committed to helping students! I understand people have issues here and there and that's where I come in. Please find me on campus and I will help you navigate any obstacles you encounter. My job is to help students graduate!! How great is that! I love Red Rocks Community College! Again, if you have any issues come see me! You can find me by going to Mary Adrian's Desk located at the end of the Advising area as you make the turn to Financial Aid, by Student Records on the Lakewood Campus.
I work at Red Rocks and I love working here! It's exciting to work with students who are growing and learning. I work in Accessibility Services; we're committed to removing barriers for students with disabilities. Check us out!!
I'll be as plain as possible. It's an okay college. Some courses will definitely be better than others. The general quality of everything isn't that well maintained. The computers seem outdated and rarely worked on. The staff can be great or might want you there so they can earn their paycheck. I had a Mythology class taught by my same English teacher, who had no knowledge in Mythology what so ever. You could say her teaching skills were a myth.
Force fed gateway program even though I informed of late fasfa approvaland no financial means other wise and expressed doubts as to that course meeting educational goals, was enrolled and when there was no fasfa approved was then later denied my credits transferr which would get me the degree in the field I was initially pursueing. What a shame that to make a pay check for a staff member they would allow manipulation and misdirection
Waste of money! Instructors teach trash material they didn't even write for the class. How about designing your own curriculum instead of regurgitating someone else's who worked there a decade ago!? Most the instructors work full time somewhere else and do this on the side. So if you want to be overcharged for a second rate education go to Red Rocks. They even overcharge for books and then refuse to buy back because it's a spring semester class only. Taking advantage of poor people. That's Red Rocks CC..
I love my professors here! They all love teaching and you can tell while you're in their class. I had a terrible experience with the front office and the cashiers office, but Linda Crook reached out to me to make everything right. She single handedly changed this from a 1 star review, to a 5 star review. She stepped up and made the situation right. Thank you so much Linda!
I've been to 4 colleges in my career and this place is super friendly, the science department is top notch! The learning center is amazing. The students are some of the best people I've met in this wonderful state! I can't recommend this school enough to anyone looking for a step ahead in life whether you plan to transfer to a 4 year University or not, your time at RRCC will not be wasted!
