DU places a high importance on cultural diversity. Although I am a Colorado native, many of my peers and professors span over the entire United States. Furthermore, about 10{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of our students are international travelers. We are known as a state to be "Colorful Colorado", and that could not be more true than for the beautiful life and community that exists on my campus. I am incredibly grateful for the culture immersion and acceptance at DU because there is so much more we can learn from each other outside of the classroom.

The University of Denver has high academic standards, and the academic culture is aimed at developing students to become leaders in their chosen fields. The university has a reputation for educating students who choose to use their education for the greater good.

It has students that are ambitious and diverse, and you have so many opportunities to learn from your peers.

DU has a focus on learning off of campus that I did not find at other campuses. DU not only looks at study abroad as an opportunity to learn more than one could learn on campus, but also is very integrated with the Denver community to always be providing, in and out of class, their students a way to learn in real situations. This is done through partnership with other academic and non-academic institutions and companies nearby, who provide lectures, workshops, internships, and voulenteer opportunities to DU students.

It's a great size, in a fantastic location. Great neighborhood in the city of Denver, close to downtown, an hour from the mountains in beautiful CO. There's also a ton of stuff to do, both on-campus and off. Couldn't imagine myself in a better place!

The location of the University of Denver makes it easy to get off campus and get involved with the community. I found the accessibility appealing because I knew that I wanted to explore the city and not spend too much time on campus.

The University of Denver has a lot of networking opportunities and other opportunities that some of the other schools I applied to did not have. The Study Abroad Program here is excellent and I am looking forward to that. The location of DU is perfect and it is a small enough university to get to know my peers by not having huge class sizes. The final thing that lead me to choose DU was the excellent education. This was the most important thing in choosing my school.

I like my school because its close to my home and i have a family so its pretty convienent. Also they are very considerate about taking my family and i into considerationwhen it comes to bad weather and other complications like that. My school is pretty small and i enjoy that very much, i think it gives everyone a better chance at really learning the material and also having a social life.

The unique thing about my school is that my school doesn’t have a football team. Here hockey is our football, because of this we show our school spirit in very different ways. Instead of getting hyped up at pre-game pep rallies we get excited by shouting angry chants at the opposing team trying to shake their confidence. It may sound crazy but that’s how our school bonds and it definitely makes us unique. Think about it, how many other four year universities don’t have a football team?
