At RMU, learning doesn't happen only in the classroom. It happens every day, in every part of your RMU life...and when it does, it's captured on your Student Engagement Transcript (SET).
The SET formally documents your participation in experiential learning - learning that occurs outside of the classroom. The SET, which is a companion to your academic transcript, is an official University endorsement of your leadership roles, community service hours, international study trips, internship experiences and much more!
If you choose, the SET will be provided to employers and graduate schools that request a copy of your academic transcript. Together, these two documents will demonstrate how you applied what you learned in the classroom to situations you encountered beyond the classroom.
The SET is comprised of seven categories:
For undergraduate students enrolled prior to the Fall 2009 semester, participation in the SET program is voluntary. For all new freshmen enrolled beginning with the Fall 2009 semester, participation in the SET program is mandatory. Mandatory participants must fulfill the requirements of at least two of the first six catgegories (listed above) during their time at RMU in order to graduate.
