Top Ten Reasons to Choose R-MC
 |
Teaching-Focused Faculty: Forget crowded lecture halls and graduate teaching assistants. At R-MC you'll find an average class size of 16 and accomplished professors who know your name and are committed to your education. Time and again our students — and our alumni — say that the care, concern and commitment of our experienced faculty make the R-MC difference. |
 |
Four-Year Degree Guarantee: You have a future waiting for you. Our Four Year Degree Guarantee assures that you won't have to put it off because you can't get that class you need. The majority of our students graduate in four years or less, making R-MC an investment that pays off quickly. |
 |
Welcoming Community: At R-MC, you'll always be more than a face in the crowd. Students here often say that from their first campus visit, the friendliness of faculty and students made them feel right at home. |
 |
World-Wide Opportunities: They don't call Ashland "the Center of the Universe" for no reason. From here, you can go anywhere, thanks to a robust internship program and travel-study options that include January (J-term) trips, semester- or year-long study abroad, and the Agora excavations in Athens. |
 |
Unique options: In and out of the classroom, you'll find so many ways to stay engaged. Prepare for your future through our pre-professional programs. Study Japanese film or the Psychology of Illusion in a J-term class. Volunteer with Habitat for Humanity. Sing with the Ujima Gospel Choir. Join in the active campus Greek life. With so many choices, there's something for every interest. |
 |
Team Spirit: Oh yes we've got it it! Eighty percent of our student body is involved in intramural or varsity sports, and you can count on a spirited turnout for everything from football games to annual campus events such as the Dance Marathon or Macon a Difference Day. |
 |
Ideal Location: Our scenic campus, with its historic buildings and tree-lined streets, is located less than a mile from Interstate 95, just 90 miles south of Washington, DC and 15 miles north of Richmond. It's easy to get here — and an R-MC education makes it easier to get where you want to go. |
 |
Promising future: An R-MC education can take you anywhere you dream of going; our alumni have distinguished themselves in every field from law and medicine to education and business to politics and the arts. And it's good to know that nearly 90 percent of graduates seeking jobs get hired in six months or less, while over 90 percent applying to graduate schools are accepted by their first choice. |
