Review of Colorado Mesa University

from Monument, CO

Will learn a lot

The academics within the school are definitely top of the line, and the teachers all seem to know their subjects absolutely thoroughly. It seems as though the University Board staffed their school very well.

Will enjoy being here

The campus is absolutely beautiful! Every single building is either just renovated or brand-new. They are renovating the football and baseball stadiums for this fall, and they just opened 3 new dorms within the past 2 years. The population is big enough where you aren't in everyone's business, yet small enough where you can get to know everyone that you want to. An excellent pick if you want a superior small school.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Mesa is definitely the cheapest college - now University - in Colorado. They have the smallest tuition increase in CO, and the room and board prices are just below the average University dorm prices. Definitely worth every penny paid though.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

1. Go to the FYI (Freshman Year Initiative) program before school starts - it's most certainly worth it. 2. Get involved with the activities on campus. There are 19 NCAA Div. II sports on campus, plus 5 up and coming. If you don't want to play pro, then there are tons of club sports that you can be a part of.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

1. Arts (music, theater, dance, art) majors DEFINITELY 2. Medical Majors (any type) 3. Mathematics/science majors will do very well
