New Student Orientation

To support student success, all students must complete a non-credit orientation session before starting their first course at RCU. This session covers essential topics, including navigating the Learning Management System (LMS), accessing the Digital Library, and using academic tools and resources. It also provides an overview of key policies, academic writing guidelines, and available support services. A recording of the session is available on the LMS for future reference.

Change of Contact Information

It is the responsibility of the students to ensure that their contact information is both current and accurate. If, during their enrollment at RCU, a student’s address, Phone number, and/or email address changes, the onus is on the student to update his/her contact information immediately in the Student Portal.

If a student’s name changes (ex: marriage, etc.), the student must contact RCU to make an update to the student’s account. Proof of the name change must be provided by the student.

Graduation Ceremony

RCU honors the achievements of all graduates through a virtual graduation ceremony. The virtual graduation ceremony includes a commencement speech after which the names of the graduates are read. At this time, graduates are invited to share a little about themselves and what their accomplishment means to them moving forward. RCU faculty and staff attend the virtual ceremony, along with the graduates themselves and any current students who desire to attend. Students are to ensure that all financial obligations are paid in full before graduation.

Academic Guidance and Advising

RCU considers academic guidance essential to student success and encourages all students to participate in advising sessions via Zoom to enhance their experience.

Faculty are committed to supporting students throughout their studies, with the CAO providing personalized assistance in academic planning and clarifying university policies to ensure students understand their academic pathway towards completing the RCU MBA.
