“This designation underscores our commitment to offering a high-quality, accessible educational experience for all,” said RMC President, Robert Wilmouth, M.D.
“Rocky Mountain College has always described itself as the ‘College of the Open Door,’ and it is a compliment to the hard work of our faculty and staff to be ranked in this study," he said.
