Freshman: I like that they have: A smaller Campus, Smaller Classes, Counselling staff is very helpful and check on you often, Mountains/ Nature/ with many outdoor activities, beautiful campus, the Administration/ people/ student body are all very friendly and the campus amenities were very appealing to me. Western Colorado University is very close to Aspen and Crested Butte Ski resorts. I plan on getting a ski pass this winter to relax and enjoy the skiing with other students and peers during our downtime. Academically, Western Colorado University has much support whether its: other students, tutors, counselors or Professors on their open to student hours and times.... Read 403 reviews

Senior: This a great university! Students and staff are friendly. Transportation for off-campus living is great! There is paid parking if you choose to commute and if not, then there is public transportation that has routes all over the city. Tuition can be expensive. Financial aid helps greatly but I wish it was a little less to broaden the students that can attend. Overall, there are great resources for anything you're looking for help on: tutoring, medical treatment, financial assistance, etc. Classes can be large so professors may not be as personal with each student but they are helpful if you visit during office hours....

Sophomore: My time at Fort Lewis College was a profoundly positive experience, driven by its embrace of diversity and strong sense of community. The campus buzzed with a rich mix of cultures and perspectives, enriching both academic and social life. Interacting with students from varied backgrounds broadened my horizons and encouraged critical thinking. The college's small size facilitated meaningful connections. Professors knew students personally, fostering mentorship and collaborative projects beyond classrooms. Numerous student organizations and events catered to diverse interests, nurturing personal growth and strong bonds among peers. Celebrations of cultural diversity showcased the inclusive ethos, providing a platform for sharing traditions.... Read 1,179 reviews

Junior: UNCO is an excellent school with a strong sense of community. Students are friendly with each other, there are ample clubs and groups to join on campus, and many of the professors are happy to work with students individually and provide resources and help. There are many dorm halls so students won't have to worry about being unable to find housing. The dining hall food is average at best, but luckily there are other dining options such as Einstein's Bagels, Subway, Starbucks, and more being constructed. The campus is walkable too, with lots of green areas and even a frisbee golf course. Personally, I'm having a lot of fun in my classes and have made lots of friends, so I'm excited to complete my degree here!... Read 2,283 reviews

Freshman: I hope this message finds you well. As a single mother enrolled at Colorado Christian University, I wanted to share my positive experience thus far. The Brightspace platform has been a game-changer for me in terms of online learning. Its seamless connection to our classes has made the learning experience both amazing and straightforward. The ease of navigation and quick responses from both teachers and administrators have truly facilitated my academic journey. While I appreciate the support I've received, I would like to suggest an enhancement to our website. It would be beneficial to have a direct link providing students with information on additional scholarship and grant opportunities. This resource could be a valuable addition, helping students like me explore trusted financial aid options more efficiently. Thank you for your attention to my feedback. I am grateful for the positive start I've had at Colorado Christian University and look forward to continued success.... Read 1,356 reviews

Freshman: I took a huge risk traveling from Las Vegas to be admitted into MSU, and I am so glad I attend this university! I’ve enjoyed it so far, and have met some lovely people. I enjoy the resources the university offers and take full advantage of it as well, such as tutoring, the health center, and the gym! A change that would be greatly appreciated by myself and many of my peers is regards to the FAFSA. I have tried to take advantage of the resources but in the grand scope of things, I still have a difficult time being able to pay my tuition since I am an out of state student. I deeply feel if there were more opportunities for students like me to have a guideline or plan to be able to pay tuition confidently. Regardless, I really love this place and look forward to the rest of my years here.... Read 3,058 reviews

Senior: I have absolutely loved my time at CMU. I'm a senior in the Criminal Justice program, and there have been so many unique, hands-on opportunities through the program. Additionally, the professors I've had are personable, supportive, and helpful. I have been able to work at the University, and I met my best friend here! I also had the incredible opportunity to study abroad last year. I've had so many amazing experiences through Colorado Mesa. Choosing CMU was probably one of the best decisions I've ever made!...

The administrative staff and professors are incredibly helpful and want to help you succeed! I would highly recommend starting at PPSC for your undergrad degree!

Freshman: I've had a positive experience at Colorado State University-Pueblo. The transition from high school senior to first-year college student presented some initial challenges. I had to become accustomed to a new school, unfamiliar teachers, and making new friends. Leaving behind the comfort of familiarity took work. However, I quickly discovered that numerous seniors, professors, and advisors could provide guidance and support as I adjusted to my new environment. While I wouldn't change anything about my experience, personal growth is a natural part of the college experience.... Read 1,043 reviews

Alum: This is a fantastic community college! Classes are very affordable compared to larger colleges, and if you don't have the funds to pay for tuition at the beginning of the semester, the Financial Aid office will help you find a solution. Furthermore, RRCC offers a wide variety of online, in-person, or hybrid classes to suit your schedule, and most of them are guaranteed to transfer to other colleges in Colorado. The professors are very supportive and want you to succeed with your academic goals. Plus, I prefer the small class sizes here over the larger, more intimidating classes at state universities. Also, it has great facilities and resources including a brand new student rec center, an IDEA lab to introduce students to engineering, the Arvada campus dedicated to the health sciences, a bookstore, and a coffee shop. The only complaint I have is that student clubs and organizations haven't quite recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic.... Read 773 reviews
