What's the most frustrating thing about your school?
The admissions process, hands down! The advisors do not work with the finacial aid officers who don't work with the transcript counselors when working on the admissions process for a new student. Sudents are always confused as to why noone told them, for example, their general studies credits did not transfer ad that's why they do not qualify as a sophmore.

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?
The unique aspect of Metropolitan State College of Denver is that it is a commuting school. There are no dorms on campus and the student’s travel from all over the state to attend the college. The student population is extremely varied which was my favorite part and the ages of the students ranged from 18 to 50's. The variations of age were wonderful because we learned from all different perspectives, which widened our knowledge base. It was not your "typical" college experience, but this college provided me an amazing education with an extraordinary experience.

What kind of person should not attend this school?
I don't believe there is any reason why someone should not attend Metropolitan State College of Denver since it is a good school. The only types of learners that I can think of who may not want to physically be on campus are those who prefer online classes. I am not sure if online classes have increased since I attended. The only other constraint that I can think of would be one's inability to financially afford the tuition or the books and have no access to financial aid for any reason.

Is the stereotype of students at your school accurate?
Far from it! It maybe open enrollment but MSCD is more strict than most other colleges when it comes to academics. A D is not passing in any class (so you have to take it again) and most teachers fail you if you miss 3 or more classes. Also if your GPA falls below (I think its 2.5) you go on academic probation. You don’t get it above 2.5 in one semester you are gone from the school until you receive a diploma from another college. I have friends who transferred to MSCD from DU and CU and both said they had never worked so hard in their lives as MSCD was way more challenging.
