There are many things that make the University of Colorado at Boulder unique from any other school I visited but in my opinion the most unique part of CU Boulder is the campus and community of Boulder. The town of Boulder, Colorado is a very environmentally friendly community mostly due to the policies enforced by the university. CU Boulder’s goal as a university is to be as environmentally friendly as possible and in return is one of the most “green” universities in the country. The amazing scenery of Boulder also makes CU Boulder unique.

My school is unique compared to other schools because of the diversity. Although many consider CU Boulder not to be diverse it is. Diversity is not just determined by race, but by different perspectives, ethnicities, languages, and talents. The University of Colorado Boulder consists of students from all over the world. This in it of itself brings four different types of diversity: linguistically, culturally, ethnically, and prospectively. There are also many different types of religions, passions, and disabilities represented at this school. Everyday I meet someone new at this school and learn from their diversity.

It was close to home and it had the degree that I wanted. It was also a very beautiful campus to consider and makes one feel safe.

What is unique about CU is the city it is tucked away in, Boulder. The city of Boulder is incredibly passionate about health and wellness and offers multiple opportunities for students to be physically active within the community at no cost. Boulder also offers nationally ranked restaurants that cater to the appetites of its residents, such as vegans or competitive eaters. Lastly, Boulder is dedicated to the well being of animals and any students interested in studying them would find incredible resources to do so. By attending CU students get the opprotunity to take advantage of this incredibly unique city.

Very fun atmosphere and a general lack of pretentiousness.

Alexandra

CU Boulder is surrounded by beautiful scenery, hiking trails, skiing/snowboarding, and a really eccentric earth-conscious city. It has clear blue sky most days of the year and it has a gorgeous campus full of trees and plush lawns to lay on. I fell in love with the campus and I still love it.

Kyra

I'm not sure, truthfully, I wanted to attend a liberal university because I am interested in psychology and wanted to pursue a career that emphasized western and integrative perspectives. However, I feel that Boulder wants to be more liberal than it really is. Many kids on campus don't really care about their future careers and its a little disappointing when I know students are cheating... it frustrates me that they are wasting an educational opportunity that many people in the U.S. only dream of.

Brett

The dorms are the worst place in the world. It was nothing like I was expecting. If you like partying and having a good time, you can count on getting in trouble for alcohol and weed.

Haleh

The location is beautiful and the city is a perfect size, in addition, students had adequate access to campus resources and funding to establish student groups and cultural events on campus

Kristina

CU-Boulder, while large, still provides students with the opportunity to have a smaller college feel. Upper-level classes are small and typically discussion based, there are many activites/clubs/sports to get involved with, faculty is inviting, and you are encouraged to do things outside your area of study. Additionally, there are many opportunities for research, grants, and study abroad. If you want to do something, the University of Colorado will find ways to support you and help.

Gintare

University of Colorado is not your typical college, because no matter what day of the week or what time of the day there is always something going on. From Waterpollo to Belly Dancing, from Nap Time Club to World on Confrence Affairs Week you will find the activity you'll want to be part of. Many of my friends in other colleges can't say the same , because you what's better than CU-Boulder where the sun shine 300 days a year!

Monica

For me personally it was close to home. Also, the weather and surrounding areas provide for many diverse outdoor activities, and the students who choose to go to school here ususally like to spend time outdoors either skiing or hiking or rockclimbing.

Aileen

I think that my school is unique in various ways that include things like where it is located, the diversity of the students that CU-boulder has and its programs. The University of Colorado is located along the Rocky Mountain Front Range. Every day i go outside when i am getting out of class I see the beautiful mountains that give you a sense of peace. At CU you find every race and that is what makes it unique. There are over 200 programs and that gives students freedom to choose the correct career path for them.

Eric

What is unique about the University of Colorado at Boulder is that students don?t have to be involved in athletics, fraternities or sororities, or student counsel to be accepted, as there is a niche for everyone. Even though there may not be a lot of racial diversity, there is a profound sense of community with a many different religions, socioeconomic backgrounds, and values that bind our students together. Not everyone is devoted to getting A?s on their term papers, but every single person is persistent and devoted to their interests.

Myles

Though CU is a big school, there's a sence of family here. Nobody is a jerk to anyone else and with the huge number of students, everyone can find their place. We have great classes and awesome teachers, but the real fun comes after class. No other school gives students the opportunity to see and experience the outdoors like CU does. With our location near the Rockies, and multiple programs to get you there, CU is an outdoor lover's dream. And of course we can party like none other.

Andrea

The best and most unique thing about CU Boulder is that is is so Eco/green friendly. Everyone walks or rides bikes, recycling is a daily part of life and the college experience. Here they have green down to an art, especially the newer pieces of campus where the toliet are even water saving!

Micah

I wanted to stay in state for my college experience. The University of Colorado at Boulder is situated in an environment that gives the feeling of being away from home yet not too far away from family and friends.

Dillon

The campus life is a lot different from the other schools which I looked into. The atmosphere here in Boulder is extraordinary. There are so many diverse students that attend the university. The culture also play a big part in the diversity. It is easy to learn and hear about ceratin people's culture background. It is a magnificent place to learn. I encourage that every high school student should have the Unviversity of Colorado, Boulder in their choices of attendance.
