University of Denver Top Questions

DU offers a once in a life time opportunity to study abroad. The university sends students all over the world from three to twelve months at time. As a college student money is always a constant struggle, and coming out of college will leave debt that will cripple students for years. The chance to live in a different part of the world may never happen again for many of us, because of our limitations. DU provides the resources to make this impossibility a real option for students to grow in education, and in life experience.

When I brag to my friends, I tell them that I am able to go to class in shorts in 70 degree weather, and then within an hour I can be on the slopes in a winter jacket and snowpants.

Our spectacular study abroad program. In fact, that was a major deciding factor on attending DU. The cost of studying abroad is included in tuition, so the university highly encourages students to study abroad, which I find aids in a more interesting and diverse campus experience.

DU is one of the top schools for my major, International Studies. They are the #1 school in the US for graduates entering the Peace Corps. The campus is gorgeous. Systems, such as financial aid, registration, are well organized. My professors are all doctorates, and teaching assistants do not teach classes. Class sizes are perfect, about 25-30 each. Teachers, admin and students love DU and are happy. The athletic facility is amazing, sporting events are very fun. The new academic commons is a wonderful high-tech facility. The Pioneer Leadership Program is phenomenal and doesn't cost any more!

As I come from a low income/poor social economic status, I am humbled to be able to attend a school with a high prestige education status, and one of the oldest private schools in the US. I had great support within the college to help me pay to be able to attend this school, and provide me different opportunities for scholarships and loans. I never thought I would get accepted, but here I am achieving my goals and making my dreams a reality.

The greatest thing about The University of Denver is the amazing opportunities that it provides and the fast paced learning that takes place. There are many ways to get involved and become educated here.

The University of Denver has so many things to brag about. Its beauty amazed me when I first arrived and the structures, as well as the outside common areas are stunning and magnificent. I often found myself looking beyond my campus at the surrounding Rocky Mountains and being dazed by what I saw. Inside the class rooms and staff buildings, the professors and staff were friendly and helpful which proved to be one fo the major perks about the University of Denver. The people who attend this school are also some of the friendliest people I have ever met.

When I talk to people I tell them about the wonderful classes and professors here at the University of Denver. I recently transfered here from Saddleback College in Mission Viejo, CA and can't see myself going to school anywhere else. The class sizes here are small and all of your teachers are aware of your presence in the classroom. I recently finished my first quarter and I was on a name to name basis with every one of my teachers, this helped me to achieve a 3.85 GPA one of my best GPA's in college so far.

I knew I wanted to attend college in Colorado. I wanted a business school with top-quality academics and great connections with businesses and professionals. I wanted outstanding opportunities to develop my leadership abilities (the Pioneer Leadership Program is fantastic). I looked for a variety of ways to get involved on campus and smaller class sizes where professors know me. I love DU's international focus; every student can spend a semester abroad, all expenses paid, and 10{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of students on campus are international. I brag that University of Denver is a top-quality school in Colorado.

When I tell others about the University of Denver I talk about the opportunities they provide for students. I talk about DU's Study Abroad program, class sizes, effective teaching, and dorm life. DU offers an amazing chance for students to study abroad for the same cost of tuition. I talk about the class sizes because they are small which allows for effective teaching. I also discuss the dorm life at DU is better than others, the dorms are really nice, safe, and provide all the necessary resources for residence.

Probably the thing I brag most about is the quarter system, or the hockey team. DU runs on quarters rather than semester, so the fall quarter does not start until mid-September, and we get out for winter break right before Thanksgiving. Also, our winter break lasts for 6 whole weeks! Longer than most other universities. It's pretty awesome! Also our hockey team is amazing! They've won multiple national titles, and year after year they are constantly in the top 10 college hockey teams! It is so much fun to get to watch them.

I always brag about being on the trimester system and getting 6 weeks off for winter break when my friends are still in school. I also tell them about being next to the mountains and the beautiful weather that happens all year round. Having sunshine 300 days of the year has its benefits! I also brag about the ease of public transportation (which is provided for students!) and being only 15 minutes from downtown Denver. The culture of a big city is extremely accessible for everyone with theatre, music, and restaurants available. A little bit of something for everyone!

I brag about the availability to go to the mountains on any given weekend and being able to do all kinds of outdoor activities depending on the season. The Rockies are our backyard and we have some of the best ski resorts in the country and plenty of snow in the winter to go with it. The campus is beautiful (very green), our buildings are state-of-the-art, and most classes are kept small so there is a lot of interaction during class. The athletic facilities are fantastic and most people like to stay fit.

How beautiful the campus is. The advantages of relatively small class sizes. The location and surrounding areas. How great our hockey team is.

I brag that the student body is close as a whole. We bond over university activities like hockey games. We all have the same love for the school that we attend which makes it so easy to go there because you know that there are people who have the same interests as you.

What sets the University of Denver apart is the small class sizes. I've had one 100 student class but all my other classes have been between 15-30 students.

The University of Denver is the epitome of college when one pictures college. DU provides the best college experience and I love to tell my friends about all the actives and experiences that I have had on campus. From the coed dorms where I do my laundry, to the packed arena at hockey games, DU allows students to engage in activities and meet life long friends. I love bragging about the environment my school offers and how it has enabled me to meet wonderful people, make memories, and enjoy every day on campus.

The class sizes, the weather, Colorado, the campus, and the mountains.

When I brag to my friends about school the first thing I mention is the beautiful campus. The next thing that I tell them about is how the class sizes are so small that the teachers all know me by name and are willing to help me out when I have a question. The final thing I tell people about is how my school is one of the highest ranking business schools in the country. These are the three things that I tell people the most even though there are many other amazing things about my school.

The study abroad program is amazing! Here at DU, it is common for third-year students to study abroad for a semester and DU makes it easier to do so. There is an entire office dedicated to the internationalization of students and there is a scholarship program in place so that students may go abroad and only have to pay what they pay to attend DU.
