I am a graduate and I loved my 4 years at Boulder. I had a great educational experience. Academically it was very challenging and it awakened my love of learning. The campus is beautiful and the town and surrounding mountains are enchanting.

It's a good school. Definitely not Berkeley, but a very good public state flagship school. I am satisfied with it so far.

After two years, I am transferring colleges. The dorms are in terrible condition, women get cat called regularly when walking to their homes, and it seems like admission prices and student acceptance rate rise each year. It is as if they are trying to get as much money as possible without improving the school.
