Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

Join Jodi Glou, President of Custom College Consulting, on her recent visit to the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.
Founded in 1874 in Terre Haute, Indiana, as an all-male engineering college, Rose-Hulman has evolved into a leading institution with a current undergraduate enrollment of 2,100 students, 73% of whom come from out of state.
With a 1:11 faculty-to-student ratio and 99% of faculty holding PhDs and actively teaching both classes and labs, students receive personalized attention in every aspect of their education. The quarter system allows for flexibility, and with 18 undergraduate STEM majors and 16 minors, students have plenty of academic options.
In addition, 94% of students gain real-world experience through internships, co-ops, or research. Also professors operate with an open-door policy instead of set office hours, reinforcing the school’s commitment to accessible and supportive education.
Rose-Hulman also emphasizes a well-rounded education, requiring students to complete nine courses in the humanities, social sciences, and arts. It offers a test-optional admissions policy with no foreign language or engineering class requirements.
Student life is vibrant, with a 75-25 male-to-female ratio, 11 Greek chapters, and 60% of students participating in intramural sports. The school also boasts a strong performing arts program, showcasing that there’s more to Rose-Hulman than just academics.
Rose-Hulman is a place where students are challenged academically, engaged outside the classroom, and supported throughout their journey. It’s a fantastic choice for any student seeking a well-rounded, service-oriented STEM education. Contact Custom College Consulting to learn more.
