Welcome to Rockford University!
At Rockford University, students are supported from the moment they apply until the day they graduate, and beyond. Our intentionally small and personal campus ensures that students are known by name, not by an ID number, and that they always have someone in their corner.
International students receive comprehensive support, including dedicated advising, academic guidance, and career preparation. Small class sizes foster an engaging learning environment, allowing students to form meaningful relationships with their professors.
These close connections lead directly to internships, hands-on experience, and excellent preparation for Optional Practical Training (OPT) and future careers. With 99% of undergraduate students eligible for scholarships, Rockford University offers outstanding value for families seeking a high-quality U.S. education, one that combines personalized support with clear, career-focused outcomes.
