I’ve been hearing this question from a lot from people considering going back to school, so I thought to take the second to answer these questions. Since I just started the program, I’ve had a chance to experience Rasmussen’s service and here are some of my thoughts.
Accessibility
Rasmussen is available to all students 24/7. I can locate their website from any computer just by logging to the portal and my class.
Communications
While taking my classes via the Rasmussen Portal there are several tools in place to assist me. They have internal email which is called Angel mail. I can use this to contact any fellow students, teachers and administrative staff. Therefore all of my questions get answered quickly. Rasmussen is really big on student communication so this helps me learn by getting others input on the topic of the assignments in place. I thought by taking online courses I would miss the student involvement, but I haven’t! I feel as if I already know the other students in the class and we chat all the time.
Library
Rasmussen also has tools such as the library to help students with their assignments. I was a little nervous about navigating through the library to find information needed for my assignments, but I found it to be very easy. There are all types of information available in the library such as articles, journals, books and videos. I was amazed at the amount of useful information available in the library.
Free Tutoring
And when you have trouble with a class because it’s challenging Rasmussen, offers tutors to all students to help them get through it. I have not used a tutor yet, but it is relieving to know that if and when I need one, it is available.
Email me if you have any questions about these services or in general. I’m here to help answer any questions you might have. Remember, I’m not Rasmussen staff, so I might have to ask you to speak to one of them at the schools, but I can share my experience with you.
