TESTOPTIONAL
NEW! RIDER IS NOW TEST OPTIONAL!We’ve joined leading universities nationwide in adopting a test-optional admission policy. Students can opt to not submit SAT or ACT scores when applying for full-time undergraduate admission.
ENGAGED LEARNING EXPERIENCES AT RIDER INCLUDE:
• Leadership and Mentoring • Civic and Community Engagement
• Study Abroad and Cultural Exploration • Internship, Co-op and Field Work
• Guided Research and Scholarship • Arts, Media and Creativity
All students must complete at least two signifi cant engaged learning experiences outside the classroom in order to graduate, which will be documented on an Engaged Learning Transcript. Learn more at rider.edu/engagedlearning.
The goal of a Rider education is to provide all students with a transformational learning experience through which they will develop and grow intellectually, professionally, ethically, emotionally and socially. At the heart of that educational experience is Rider’s focus on engaged learning, in which students apply the lessons of the classroom to relevant, hands-on, real-world experiences in two or more of these six areas:
CAMPUS UPDATES
Back! B.S.B.A. or B.A. in Actuarial ScienceActuaries analyze the fi nancial consequences of risk. Considered the backbone of the insurance and fi nancial security industries, actuarial science is a discipline that businesses and government rely on to improve forecasting and decision-making. Back by popular demand, Rider’s Actuarial Science program now offers both business and liberal arts options.
New! B.S.B.A. in Business AnalyticsStudents can harness the power of big data with our B.S.B.A. in Business Analytics. Designed with input from our corporate partners to ensure we meet industry demands, Rider prepares students for success in a world increasingly ruled by data. Graduates are prepared to make sense of data and translate it into actionable insights to solve business problems.
A New Look on Campus!Rider is investing millions to create a more accessible, attractive and state-of-the art campus for students. Major construction projects launched during Summer 2018 have already transformed the campus, including:
• Renovations to the Bart Luedeke Center, featuring dramatic changes to the front entrance and a ground fl oor information center.
• Upgrades to Wright Hall and Ridge House residence halls, including individually controlled heating and air conditioning, renovated bathrooms, new fl ooring and more.
• Improvements to Sweigart Hall, home to all Rider business programs, including construction of a Wall Street-themed teaching lab and high-tech data analytics center.
• Major upgrades to the Science and Technology Center, including new technology, renovated classrooms and teaching labs, a new computer lab and two new research labs. A planned $20 million addition will begin soon — one of the largest projects in Rider’s history.
