REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingAll of my classes have been taught by brilliant and passionate professors who really care about teaching and want students to succeed, both on tests and in life. Regis provides you with a challenging academic curriculum, but professors and tutors are always very easy to get in contact with if you need help. The small class sizes create a close-knit academic community where you learn from each other as well. The honors program offers an even more rigorous curriculum and an even tighter community of students.
Joanna from Pueblo, CO
All of the teachers here are extremely professional and are also very focused on teaching their students. The small class sizes allow for a better environment where we actually learn from the teachers, and if we need help they are usually available and always willing. Whatever you need the teachers are there to help you!
Jake from Evergreen, CO
While the purpose of college is to learn academically, I am also learning many life skills, which will stay with me forever. Even the professors here teach their subject, while integrating life lessons in to the class.
Danielle from Franktown, CO
Regis University has been the best college I have attended out of 3 colleges. They offer mentoring, hold extra learning classes on the weekends for free, and the instructors are great with tutoring and helping you succeed.
Melissa from Westminster, CO
One of the best things about attending Regis University is the small class sizes. I love the fact that there are only 15-25 kids in each of my classes and that all my professors know me by name. Also, as a liberal arts school with widespread core requirements, I am taking classes in disciplines I never would have thought of and have found new subjects that are interesting to me. Another great thing about Regis is the fact that they have a free tutoring program, that's right free! There are tutors for nearly every subject and it is actually part of their workstudy to help you, so all you have to do is make an appointment. They also have a great Writing Center and Library where people are willing to help you with any part of writing a paper, whether it's research, grammar, or format.
Alexis from Peetz, CO
Regis has completely opened my mind up to new ideas that I never would have even considered before. The teachers there have really challenged me to think outside of the box and because of that I have learned things that I never thought was possible. It's amazing to find out what one can learn when you just open your mind to a vast array of new ideas.
Marie from Peyton, CO
The great thing about Regis is that it is a small school and the professors are able to make themselves very available for help after class or to go over assignments personally.
Talisa from Denver, CO
Regis University is a small, co-ed, Jesuit University located in Northern Denver. The campus is a gorgeous arboretum, consisting of over 1,000 trees, 80 genuses, and 290 species. Because of the size, its easy to get to know your peers, professors, and the surrounding community quickly, and finding your place is a natural process.
Katie from Denver, CO
Regis is a small, beautiful campus that consists of people who are welcoming to others and people who truly want to pursue a good education. Regis is moderately diverse, with students from all over the country, as well as some international students. Regis is focused not only on bettering the education of the students, but bettering their lives and personalities in all ways.
Anon from Aurora, CO
Cura personalis is one of my favorite aspects of Regis - it means "care for the whole person." One of the main goals Regis holds is personal development, both academically and spiritually. The aim on each individual student at Regis makes the atmosphere feel welcoming and quite like home.
