Benefits of undergraduate community: "The benefit of being part of the undergraduate community at RPI is that there is a lot of freedom in which direction you want to go. You can choose your major and jump right into relevant classes but still be able to take interesting electives or shift your direction of study if you're so inclined." - August 2021
