"Students in BRT care about their experience at college; therefore they are dedicated to their studies and respectful of others "

"The First Year Program helped me meet people here that are now my best friends and has been a tight community that has socially made living in Ithaca easy to become accustomed to."

"Having a group of friends always around and only a door away has definitely been nice. Not only that but a majority of my peers in my classes live in BRT which makes getting together to study or do projects easy. It's made the transition easier."
