Rockford University Students

More than 900 traditional, degree-seeking undergraduates attend Rockford University from approximately 20 states and 15 countries. More than 60 percent are female, 35 percent live on campus, and more than 220 compete annually in intercollegiate athletics at the NCAA Division III level.

The Rockford University community reaches far beyond the traditional boundaries of a campus. There are opportunities to participate in community-based learning experiences, study abroad opportunities, internships, off-campus employment and volunteer experiences to name a few.

Rockford University students have the opportunity to engage themselves fully into the essence of campus life. They embody the principles stated above and many of our students are involved in the following:

  • Serving as leaders in student clubs/organizations and student government.
  • Performing with excellence in their sport.
  • Offering time to those in need by volunteering and involving themselves in the betterment of our campus and local communities.
  • Contributing to the arts through outstanding theater, sculpture, painting, drawing and music.
  • Supporting each other, as colleagues and friends seek to make a difference in their lives and ultimately in the world in which we all live.
