Sophomore: I like Colorado College, and the block plan and small size really intrigued me into coming here, even though I'm not a native Coloradan. It's definitely a great location if you love the outdoors. Those are the main reasons I chose this school. I quickly learned that I could fit in here! However, from being here for two months, I have noticed some of the struggles the area and the school has, including housing and crime. Many cities have these issues, but CC in the Greater Colorado Springs area has tried to fix them to a degree, but there's clearly still work to be done... Not to be too pessimistic, however, I will say though that I've met many really nice people on CC's campus, especially the students, although I do tend to see the liberal and privileged side of things in a simple classroom environment often. I would say for this school to truly be diverse as they say, CC needs more diverse viewpoints as a whole. For now, CC has an amazing mathematics department, and that's my major.... Read 791 reviews

Other: Overall, it's a great, secure, and fantastic place to have fun and relax with friends. There is plenty of security in the neighborhood performing sweeps, especially at night, and everyone is friendly. CU Boulder is diverse, in my opinion! There are several communities on campus, as well as numerous clubs and organizations to join. I appreciated how engaged the campus was with its students. It provided several activities and groups for all students, as well as resources and opportunities. I really enjoyed how environmentally friendly the campus was and how much it advertised. This, I believe, is critical so that future generations can have the same experiences. Overall, my favorite aspect of Boulder is its transportation system as well as its aim of making all students feel welcome.... Read 3,104 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: University of Denver offers a rigorous academic, athletic and extra-curricular experience. At first, I had some qualms with my experience, given most of my classes were mandatorily taken online, however, when the institution allowed for resumed regular procedures and operations, my performance as an overall student enhanced as did the experience of all learners wholesale. Integration of the fundamental collegiate activities upon resuming to a fixed "open clearance" level unfolded in the favor of most of the students, and it left a lasting impression. University of Denver has a social or extra-curricular outlet suited to all enrollment, and anyone who tells you otherwise, either isn't a student or is referring to the exception of students 'at' Universities across the board from the years 2020-2021 and part of 2022. It tests the limits of your academic ability, stimulates your career objectives and the faculty sets a competitive expectation on the same axis of most UC and Ivy schools.... Read 2,067 reviews
