Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana

Rocky Mountain College is Montana’s oldest college, founded in 1878. As a comprehensive four-year liberal arts college, RMC takes pride in its commitment to excellence and consideration of all points of view. The College joins the traditions of liberal arts with the heritage of practical training for specific careers.

The College’s campus spans approximately 60 acres in a residential section of Billings, Montana. Approximately 1,000 enrolled RMC students enjoy the evergreen trees, shrubs, and perennials, which altogether create a welcoming campus. Many campus buildings are comprised of sandstone rocks, quarried from the Rimrocks during the College’s formative years. Today, the campus continues to expand with the newly constructed, state-of-the-art Dr. Charles Morledge Science Building.

"There has been so much I've done here at Rocky. Going here was the right decision. There have been so many professors here who have shaped me as an individual. I could write a book about all of my experiences here, because Rocky has been so phenomenal.”
