HEAR FROM RCU STUDENTS

"I chose RCU because it was an opportunity for me to continue to play volleyball collegiately and get a degree in Communications! Once I got here I quickly fell in love with the tight-knit community and opportunity that came with finding my future plans."
Emily Carroll

"I chose RCU because the atmosphere on campus reminded me of one big family, and that’s what made me feel like I was at home when I attended RCU. When I stepped on campus, I was introduced to so many students, staff and faculty who really cared about me and my future. RCU came into my life, and I took it as a sign to help me get back on track in my relationship with God, and really find myself again — both of which happened during my time at the University."
Armand Cartwright
"I'm happy to offer my great experience at my college, which I adore for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, my college has a remarkable sense of community. I was immediately made to feel at home and involved, and over time, that feeling has continued to grow stronger. In addition, the faculty and staff also serve as mentors who actually care about our growth. They go above and beyond to offer direction, assistance, and inspiration."

"As an international student, I had a unique experience at Rochester Christian University. I was familiar with the surrounding area because I had previously lived in the area attending high school, but RCU was new to me. Though it was tough missing my home country of Malawi and my family — living on campus at Rochester, I was able to create a second family. I had the opportunity to play on the Men’s soccer team, and served as captain during my senior year. RCU has a special place in my heart, and I wouldn’t have wanted to be anywhere else!"
Bernard Kanjoma
"Rochester Christian University is a place where you can unlock your full potential and find your career path. I love this place because it allows me to be my true self!"

"My time at RCU was well spent thanks to the amazing faculty and staff members. The professors at RCU were superb and prepared me for the world beyond the academic environment. I was able to form several meaningful relationships at RCU with a number of people in the community. Rochester Christian University gave me a home away from home and provided me with a community who I have the privilege of calling my family."
Kelsey Seawright
"RCU gave me a great foundation for my current career. After I graduated, I went onto graduate school and earned my MBA, and I truly believe that my business degree from RCU prepared me for that next level in my academic career! Now, I serve as a member of the MI State Board of Education and NASBE Representative. I also serve as the Executive Director of a nonprofit organization, and am a city official serving as the Director of Community and Economic Development."

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

Six spellers enter; one speller leaves as the champion of the The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee! Join this group of eccentric mid-pubescents as they spell their way through a myriad of difficult words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. While vying for first place, each speller candidly discloses hilarious and touching stories from their own lives. This Tony Award-winning musical is wildly funny, charmingly witty, and truly unforgettable. Rating: PG-13 for adult themes and mature language
