I know people who graduated from both RIC and URI, they received good educations from both schools. RIC is in a better location for nightlife, big internships, off-campus housing. URI is better if you want the traditional college experience: parties, events, sports, etc. URI is prob a better option if you’re going into STEM or specifically anything marine/environmental whereas RIC is better if you’re going into teaching/early childhood development.

They are like that due to scumbags stealing out of the regular mailboxes. The new ones are suppose to be fishing proof.

The studies are based on Bryant University as a whole, not just the business school.

So do you have any data to support your statement? Simply quoting the tuition doesn't mean much if it's got a great ROI.

The Beavertail lighthouse is not the color shown on the plate.

RIC is effectively a university . The title “college” is more about nostalgia than anything else. There are something like 40 graduate programs at RIC and plenty of research going on. Definitely not the same as in a big R1 place but plenty to engage undergraduates. RIC should really be called “Rhode Island State University”

…you maybe should avoid gambling

Gaige, Craig-Lee and Horace Mann have been completely renovated and look awesome. Campus in general is in way better shape that it was maybe 6 years ago. It is worth paying a visit to the place now!

Hmmm it’s almost like they’re trying to force you to keep money on the app 🧐

No way to add a pic

Will it be embossed like the ones in the photo or flat like the new plates?

2000$ or $2000?

I refuse to drink inferior coffee milk in the name of mere tradition:

Dave’s is the best coffee syrup and I won’t hear otherwise

IDK why but the whole time reading this, I was under the impression that you were talking about residential letter boxes and why residents would weld them shut. Then scrolling down did I realise you were talking about postboxes.

The demo plate they show should read RGSTRY

Some of the buildings on campus aren't in great condition (Gauge and Craig Lee). In some ways I miss my college days

You’re right. I love in Boston, I’m just a lurker here

Your response to these opinions should be “what are you hoping for from a college that RIC lacks?”

Because it all depends on your POV. I was nearly 30 when I went, married, living in my own house, two classes at a time, paying mostly out of pocket and working in my industry; RIC was a perfect choice. It was affordable, local to my house in Cranston and I could be in and out. I wasn’t looking for a “social” life from my college or needed “opportunities”. I love the diversity of the school with ages and races. Was everything perfect? No - fuck RIC sometimes. But it got me where I needed to without debt.

RIC was a safety school for me since they offered a full ride. But when compared with URI, I honestly would’ve gone with RIC. Facilities seemed nicer at the time and it was a smaller campus, which I really liked, compared to URI which seemed massive.

I honestly don’t know why people dislike RIC since I have three friends going there at the moment and it’s been alright for them.

Going on nine years since I bought my Bruins plate. Still waiting…

USPS has free pickup for packages! We use it all the time, just need to set it up as late as the day before but can also schedule a pickup out a ways.

Depending on the size of the place and amount of bedrooms, that's a standard starting rate in a mill building. With mill buildings and other corporate housing developments those prices are non-negotiable.

"The full-time tuition fee for the fall and spring terms for all students is $48,432."

Maybe for something very specific it's got ROI but it's primarily a business school. If you want anything else but that, go elsewhere.

>The worst parts about RIC: No one graduates in four years.

I've known a lot of RIC grads, and only one of them managed to graduate in four years. And that was like, twenty years ago.
