Son is attending in the fall as well, Software engineering from CT. We’ve visited twice and it was a close call between RIT and Stevens Institute of Tech. Both gave good scholarships but SIT was still much more $ (although location was great).
Not sure he wants to dorm in the CS or Engineering house. Filled out general roommate form instead of finding one on FB. A big concern was the male/female ratio but neighbor who graduated a few years back met his wife there, so no worries. But much more snow/wind so get a good coat (yes, mother’s advice!) The dorms can be a long cold walk from Oct-Apr and the tunnels don’t connect academic side to dorms. Also, hear that parking is an issue, so arrive early to class to find a spot for sophomore year on if you bring a car. Book your flight home if you live far away for Thanksgiving. If you wait until Aug, Sept the $ is much more. The airport is only 10 min from RIT. There is no class on Wed before FYI. Good luck to you and congrats!
