University of Colorado Colorado Springs Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about University of Colorado Colorado Springs? Why?

Mary

Conservative city it is placed within. It doesn't seem to affect it too much but it does somewhat, esepcially this year during campaign season.

Courtney

It is a big commuter school so there isn't a whole lot going on on campus. Most people live off campus so it is very hard to become friends with people who are not in your classes.

Emily

The campus life is very dead. During the week any activities that they host trying to get students involved attract only a handfull of students and on the weekends the campus is dead. Hardly anyone lives on campus and of those that do the majority go home on the weekends.

Kari

There is no access to any off campus activities within walking distance. This makes it very hard for UCCS to attract freshmen and encourage them to live on campus because they will either have the additional expense of buying a car or they are stuck on campus with no social life.

Annamarie

Parking is horrible. Lot of commuter students.

Brittani

The advising for the nursing program although it's getting better. And the amount of campus life, it has a commuter campus feel.
