Our ambassadors work closely with the NTID Office of Admissions and are the students you will see giving campus tours, participating in open houses and generally representing the best of our students at RIT/NTID. All lead busy lives inside and outside the classroom. Meet these students and follow their blogs and get insight on what it’s truly like to be a student at RIT/NTID.

Rochester Institute of Technology’s School of Design ranks 11^th among “The World’s 25 Best Design Schools” in a new survey conducted by Business Insider magazine.

RIT’s School of Design offers degree programs in graphic design, interior design, industrial design, new media design, 3-D digital graphics and computer graphics design. Computer skills, design perspectives, career preparation and exposure to the related areas of publishing, photography, engineering and information technology are integrated into the curriculum. The School of Design is one of six schools within RIT’s College of Imaging Arts and Sciences. More.

According to Robert Franek, senior vice president and publisher of The Princeton Review: “We consider RIT’s E. Philip Saunders College of Business as one of the best institutions a student could attend to earn an MBA. We selected the schools we profile in this book—280 of which are in the USA and 16 are international—based on our high regard for their academic programs and our reviews of institutional data we collect from the schools.” More.

The guide has an “Index by Price” that groups public and private institutions into four price categories, from inexpensive to very expensive, but also suggests a number of schools that offer outstanding academics with relatively moderate prices. In 2013, Fiske designated 41 such institutions—20 public and 21 private—as Best Buys.

All of the “Best Buy” schools fall into the inexpensive or moderate price category and have stellar academics ratings, according to the publication.

Fiske described RIT as follows: “RIT is the largest of New York’s three major technological universities. The school is strong in anything related to computing, art and design, and engineering. … Photography and imaging are among tops in the nation. RIT is devoted to undergraduates.”

“We are not surprised to see this latest recognition of the progress RIT has made in moving into the ranks of the nation’s finest colleges and universities,” RIT President Bill Destler says. “We are especially pleased to see the quality of our programs in computers, engineering, and the fine arts endorsed by this respected guide to colleges and universities for prospective students.”
