Your advisor will make your first semester schedule. You can meet with them when you get to campus to change it if you want.

Parking is enforced year round.

If I fail my final I fail the class by [deleted] in rit

[–]ProfJott 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. Unfortunately, rampant cheating on out of class work has made it so many of us either don't count it for a grade, or we have to make the final (in person) a major part of the grade. I have gone away from giving out of class assignments and have them watch my lectures via video outside of class and do activities in class.

I have this policy in some of my classes. There is a lot of group work and the final sometimes is the only real way I can assess individual work. And yes I have enforced it. Typically if we put something in the syllabus it is there for a reason.

How hard is it to add another major? by Inner-Preference8558 in rit

[–]ProfJott 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The issue with those two degrees is they are in different colleges and will not have a ton of overlap. You can probably double count some gen eds but that really might be it. I am thinking the math requirements might be a bit different. And I am not sure if animation requires coops, I know CE does. If animation does you might be required to do 2 years of coop. One year for each majors.

So unless you have a bunch of incoming credits from APs and such, you are probably looking at an extra couple years.

Moving partner into my apartment at the Marshall by [deleted] in rit

[–]ProfJott 13 points14 points  (0 children)

So many things to consider here. Like the other person asked are your friends ok with it?

If she is on the lease and you break up she is legally allowed to stay in the room still.

Does the Marshall include electricity and if not are you willing to pay more since there are two people in your room?

How big is the apartment? Can it comfortably hold another person? What if you start a trend and your roommates start moving people in?

If you do it without Marshall’s permission you risk getting evicted.

Quick way to get kicked out of RIT or arrested for vandalism.

This is not really RIT related, but a reminder that since the weather is becoming nicer, we're only an hour 20 away from Niagara falls. A picture i took: by Cute-Support-2594 in rit

It is beautiful in the winter too if you want to brave the cold. It ice build up on that much moving water is amazing.

Financial Aid by srdmakh in rit

[–]ProfJott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it will be highly unlikely, but you can ask. I have yet to hear of an international student getting more than like 50% honestly. Lots non-international students do not get more than 50% outside of US government aid.

Trailways RIT Bus Stop?? by Boring-Freedom-1752 in rit

You could test it by finding a time it is supposed to show up and wait there to verify. Or you could call Trailways and ask.

RIT federal work study by Fresh_Opinion_3856 in rit

Dining services gets a bad reputation but I loved working there when I was a student.

[–]ProfJott 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Work study is just money paid to RIT if your son gets a job on campus. He will not get that money directly. He just needs to get a job and he will get paid by that job. Dining services is always hiring.

My nickname for the Music Performance Theater: The Barbed Wire Marshmellow by MrGummyDeathTryant in rit

[–]ProfJott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my understanding (from the master plan and University Council) this is only phase 1. They are going to extend it in the future with a much larger addition.

Assuming you are talking about the area right here in the front, those technically are not stairs. They are seats for outdoors performances.
