48-Hour Decision

RBC Admissions has streamlined its process to help students become Statesmen in a matter of days. Justin May, Director of Admissions, explains the process to prospective students. 

What does 48-hour decision mean?
It is simple. Apply to RBC, submit the necessary documents, and receive an admittance decision within 48 hours. This initiative is designed to capitalize on a student’s excitement and remove the anxiety around having to wait. Plus, a quick decision allows students and families the opportunity to plan for life post high school. Applying to college should be a positive experience, and we want to add to that. 

What does the admission  process entail?
The process is straightforward. Complete a free application at rbc.edu and send us the necessary admittance documents to make a decision. Most students only need to submit an official transcript from their high school and/or college. It is common at RBC for students to apply and get an acceptance decision before the week’s end. 

What is the thought process behind creating 48-hour admittance?
This process is indicative of our culture at RBC and provides prospective students a glimpse of what to expect when they become students. How an organization does one thing is how they do everything. Student success is our number one priority and having a customer- centric environment is required to ensure we meet this metric. 

Is there a deadline to apply for 48-hour admittance?
There is no deadline to apply, but sooner is always better. Why put off until tomorrow what you can do today?

What is the RBC 360 Virtual Tour?
The 360 virtual tour provides prospective students with the opportunity to explore RBC’s gorgeous campus from the comfort of their home. No car? Live hours away? No problem. Simply go to rbc.edu to access the virtual tour and learn about the features that aid in student success and set us apart from other schools. 

I’ve been accepted into Richard Bland in 48-hours, what  happens next?
First, congratulate yourself, then tell your family and friends. Getting admitted to college is an exciting event and should make you proud.Shortly after being admitted, you will receive an email and packet in the mail. The email will have a URL link to confirm your acceptance. I recommend confirming as soon as possible so you can access your RBC accounts and start applying for institutional scholarships. Be sure to schedule a time to visit the campus and get your free RBC t-shirt. RBC offers a unique college experience with many services that separate us from other institutions.
