I mostly brag about the campus and the city of Boulder. I will also brag about the Physics program here at CU as it is one of the best in the nation.
Lena
I tell them that my school is one of the most free spirited schools there is in America. Boulder chooses to do what they feel like and they want to do things differently then the rest of the state and the country. They are unique and that why I believe that I would fit right in. Also the school is located in one of the most fit cities in the country which I find admirable because I love to stay active.

The scenery and night life around campus is fantastic. It is great having the best of both worlds: the beautiful mountains and the close proximity to Denver.
Nathaniell
I tend to brag about the demanding and well ranked status of the Leeds school of business. These aspects are what drew me to the campus and are what keep me encouraged about the time I have invested at the school.

I love the area. Boulder is a fantastic place. The campus is truly beautiful, the mountains, the architecture...LOVE it. My friends from high school visit and are blown away by the setting.
Hannah
I brag about the beautiful campus the most. Also my amazing science professors doing cutting-edge research.
Mattie
I brag about the high academic standard that is constantly upheld at CU. Most of my friends attend CSU, who is our major rivel and we have created the chant "if you can't go to college go to state." A little innaproperate perhaps but the rigerous academic schedules at CU really keep students on their toes. But at the same time, we know how to have a good time outside of studying and manage having a social like and a successful academic career. CU has a lot of school spirit for both our academic achievements and out social ones.
Brittany
I tend to brag about my school's diverse eduational programs and majors. My school made it very easy to find a major that suited my eduational and career desires. There was never just one 'math' major, one 'science' major, but a plethora of different majors being offered to better ensure that every student finds a path to their liking.
Jacqueline
Beautiful campus
Lauren
The campus is practicially the city itself and therefore there are all kinds of shops, eateries, museums and other activities accessible to students.
Jordan
I brag primarily about the very strong philosophy program at CU.
Elizabeth
My school is ranked in the top 100 public schools every year. The professors here are all very qualified to teach and they make class interesting. The town in so much fun and when you're not occupied with school work, there is plenty of things to do here, like hiking, skiing, going to the infamous Pearl Street and many other things. It is a great school and a great college town.
Elizabeth
I brag about my school having top notch academics as well as a very well rounded approach to extracurriculars that helped me to broaden my outlook on life, culture, and the people involved in the world.
Kendra
The beautiful location, the friendly attitudes, the surrounding location, the friendships. I love CU!
Eric
Our campus has a lot of student pride, and a great location if you enjoy the outdoors. The students are always productive, getting involved and volunteering. Greek life isn't huge and there are many ways to get involved and meet new friends. The professors are eager to help you out, and very experienced as they have to get their field research done as well. There are lots of opportunities to find work in your field of study and internships available. Boulder has a friendly, lively and encouraging atmosphere to accommodate anyone who is willing to put forth the effort.
Ashleigh
When I tell my friends about my school, I like to brag about the wonderful atmosphere of Boulder. The area surrounding the campus is so inviting and appealing to anyone who enjoys nature. The residents in the county are ever so friendly with an up beat attitude and welcoming vibe. Here in Boulder, Colorado, residents enjoy the four beautiful seasons as the weather never bores those who reside within the area.
Charlotte
It is a beautiful campus with a wide variety of majors and interests. The University of Colorado at Boulder offers a very large, accommodating range of undergraduate-accessable research programs. These programs are not available everywhere, and are extremely valuable for experience in the fields of interest. In addition, the University of Colorado is highly respected outside as a credible source of research information. On another note, the university is also well-known for its environmental awareness.
Andrew
I tell my friends about the gorgeous surroundings the school has and how it is in the middle of the perfect college town where everything one needs is within walking distance. The people are extremely friendly and very environmentally conscious and noone is afraid to say hello when you walk past, even if it's a complete stranger. The music scene is very diverse and concerts are a big part of the social life. Also the Rocky Mountains provide some of the best skiing/snowboarding the entire United States has to offer, and they're only an hour away.
carly
It is a beautiful campus with wonderful weather. I have very few complaints about the professors who for the most part are knowledgeable and passionate about their research and teaching.
David
The beauty of the campus and surrounding area, the diversity of activites, greek life, and diversity of student body.
