Review of Colorado Mesa University

from San Antonio, TX

Describe your college in three sentences.

The school is located in a nice little town where the mountains surround the school and thereâ??s a view from every window. The locals are nice and outdoorsy so there are people outside all times of day. Great place to study and have fun and itâ??s a perfect location if you want to get out of the city life and try something new.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you are annoyed by the city life i would recommend this university because the community is safe and there are a lot of outdoor activities. The school is not that big and not small either you can get to the other side of the campus in less than 15 minutes depending on how fast you walk. the dorms are close to the classes so even if you wake up late you can get to your classes in time.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Classes are not that hard you just have to show up and study. They offer a great tutoring center if you ever need help and they are open everyday so you don't have to worry about struggling to find a tutor because they have enough to help everyone.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The dorms are one of the first places you visit and at first glance they don't seem that great but once you start living there its a whole other thing because how involve are the floors. Every so often your RA's will get the floor together and you can participate in multiple things that's how you meet most of the people you live with.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Food at the cafeteria can be good sometimes but you'll find yourself going to different places to dine. if you are into cheap fast food there is a tacobell on one side and a Mc donalds in the other so you have some variety. Some good restaurants around the school that you need to experience first hand to actually judge them.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

there is a lot of things you can do for fun you are basically in a little town surrounded by the desert so if you like the outdoors this is a place from you. these offroading,bike riding, hiking,snowboarding, and there's places you can ride your motorcycle around.

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

Worth every penny meet new friend got to meet some locals , great sight seeing and the teachers are great because the class rooms are meant to encourage everyone in it with less than 50 students per class depending on how popular the class is.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Great for people who want to be outdoors, people looking for a whole different experience, and for anyone who like the cold because some night can get pretty cold.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

there are different clubs around campus you just got to find the one that most fits you. the school has activities in the courtyards and it bring the school together but only when the weather is nice and clear.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

The Greek life is barely starting to pick up because there is only one fraternity so far but they are introducing more into the school.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

there is a cop on duty through the day so its pretty secure and safe around campus.
