People are generally friendly, but you might have to go out of your way to talk to people. If you are friendly, people will be friendly to you. If you want to have a social life, you can have one. There is a lot to do on campus if you put yourself out there.
RIT really is a great school. Even if you are struggling, RIT is there to help you succeed. Your advisour wants to help you achieve what you want at RIT.
Ellingson dorms are nice. They are big, air conditioned, and you only have to share a bathroom with 5 people. The deaf community in Ellingson is really great and not as noisy as people say.
Being in the college of liberal arts at RIT, I get small class sizes and one-on-one time with professors. But I still am apart of the large RIT community. You get the best of both worlds. As a double major in Political Science & International Studies, I thought the workload would be overwhelming. But the professors are always there if you need help and there are many resources available to you.
The dorms here are a lot nicer than others I've seen. My boyfriend goes to SUNY Brockport and his dorm is half the size of mine and his is a triple, where as mine is a double. I was extremely nervous about sharing a room because I have never had a roomate before. But my roomate and I get along great! I would suggest sharing your schedule with your roomate before classes start,so that your schedules don't overlap and you're not fighting over a shower or waking one another up too early. I got licky with a nice, friendly roomate. But if you are not, you can easily request a change from your RA.
Most people complain about the social life here, but I have had no problem making friends and finding things to do. Sure, there aren't as many huge parties as a state school. But you can definitely find them here. There is a big shopping center and a mall right down the street from campus. The city of Rochester always has a lot going on too. Overall, I am extremely happy with my time so far at RIT. I'm looking forward to the next three years here :)
