The science departments employ some of the best faculty I have had the opportunity to work with. And by work with, I mean actually work with--they treat you as a colleague, not a subordinate. Many professors understand how much money you are spending just to sit in their classroom so they make the extra effort to ensure you get more than just the basics of any one subject.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The campus is very diverse with a wide representation of many cultures, ethnicities, and religions. The location in downtown Denver is superb, close to many non-chain restaurant options for grabbing food and within close proximity to many places of employment for part-time work students.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
While I think education is invaluable and priceless, the tuition does increase every year as a result of lack of state funding to this public institution. I also pay out-of-state so any small tuition increase is definitely not appreciated. That being said, you do get a thorough education despite the cost.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Take advantage of the numerous clubs on campus and the school also has an honors program called the University Honors and Leadership Program (UHL) which offers many volunteer opportunities in addition to honors classes and an honors scholarship. Park in the Campus Village lot--$2.50/day and is the cheapest lot on the whole campus.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Pre-Health (Med, Dental, PT, PA, nursing, DO)--this school really caters to the future doctor crowd.
