American Indian Students at Rocky Rocky Mountain College has a diverse student body. The largest single sector of minority and international students are American Indians. From sixteen tribal nations, the American Indian students comprise 8% of the Rocky student body. American Indian students choose Rocky for specific fields of study that include education, computer science, applied management, health and biological sciences and psychology. A majority of the students are transfers from the tribal colleges in Montana and Wyoming; the RMC Tribal Colleges Transfer Guide helps make this transfer a seamless process.
