“When I got to Red River College Polytechnic I was nervous it would be a similar experience to my time at university, but I was wrong. Here, instructors know my name. They say hello in the hallways, they care about my grades, and they make time to answer all my questions — and I had a lot of questions. At RRC Polytech, the instructors take a personal interest in my success and work with me so I can succeed. Being here feels like I have my own private tutor for every class.”
