Student Testimonials

“From my first semester at RMU, Jeanine has encouraged me and believed in all of my goals. Her light and enthusiasm make a huge impact on the school and the students' feeling of support.”
Molly RomaniakDPT13
“The RMUOHP Department of Student Affairs has been nothing short of spectacular! They always helped my family and I during any mental, physical, or financial struggles! They are the best and care for the well-being of all RMU students!”
Kolton OlsonDPT 11
“The people and resources provided to me through the Department of Student Affairs has been invaluable to me. In addition to helping me with accommodations they also provided wellness coaching and support. My life here at RMU would not be the same without them.”
Jacob HodgesDPT 13
“The Department of Student Affairs at RMUoHP is the absolute best! They were always there for me when I needed support and they are still just an email or office visit away if I ever need something. Thank you Student Affairs for everything!”
Ethan GermannMS-SLP 2
“The Department of Student Affairs was a staple for me while attending RMU. Trying to balance family (wife and 2 little ones) with personal health and education was a struggle at times. Luckily, I was able to utilize their services to discuss what was going on in my life and come up with solutions. Meeting with them was a game-changer.”
Anthony HolmesDPT 12
"Ray has had a lasting impact on my experience at RMUoHP. I have had countless meetings with him and fellow students addressing our goals of establishing a culture at RMUoHP of diversity, inclusion, and equity. He has had a pivotal role as an advisor supporting my journey as not only a student, but as a student leader."
Andrea GutierrezDPT 13
“Offering a free subscription to Betterhelp is one of the best resources I have ever seen offered to students! As a psychiatric PA, I am a proponent of counseling and often recommend it to my patients. If there was ever a time in life for ME, the psych provider, to seek help, it was 2020 and RMUoHP made that an easy option for me. I am grateful!”
Sherlonda AdkinsDMSc 5
“I am so grateful for Student Affairs and their dedication to building relationships with students to help us succeed. Not only have they been able to assist me every time I have come to them as a student and alumni, but I have been lucky enough to walk away with lasting friendships with those in Student Affairs.”
Julie ColteryahnMS-SLP 2
“The Student Affairs team became my RMUoHP family and every individual in that office has a heart for ALL the University students, even the ones across the country, like me. During the COVID-19 crisis the support and assistance they offered was monumental to my survival and success as a student.”
Erin MillerPhD
“I was apprehensive about getting accommodations through Student Affairs at first, but as soon as I had them, all I could think about was how I wished I would have gotten them sooner! My accommodations gave me the tools I needed to reach my full potential in school.”
