The housing that DU provides is pretty good. I recommend that freshman live in JMAC because the rooms are nicer than those in halls and the rooms have HUGE windows. They are currently building a new residence hall called Nagel which will open in Fall 2008, and will house sophomores, juniors and seniors.

Students generally enjoy their time at DU and are content staying for four years. Classes are interesting, professors are friendly, and the campus is in the middle of a growing, energetic city. Social life at DU is varied and engaging, and students often say the best part of their time at DU has been the memories and friends they’ve made. Some students complain that DU lacks diversity, and they say that the campus is too small, there’s not enough school spirit, and it’s too expensive. Some can’t wait to get away on the weekends to go party or attend football games at CU Boulder or CSU. Others are looking for more of an academic challenge in their college careers. They complain that DU doesn’t do its job of truly educating students and preparing them for the “real world.” DU offers a nice balance of academia and partying. If you’re looking to dedicate your college years solely to developing your career and learning as much as you can, DU probably isn’t the place for you. If you want to learn, but also want to have some fun in the process, DU might be the perfect fit.

"DU has been a blast. The people are friendly (mostly), and the teachers and classes are enlightening. I’m really glad I made the decision to come here instead of other schools I was considering." |
|
"DU is a great college experience. I think with any university, there are always things you want to change—no school is absolutely perfect. I would definitely recommend DU to students searching for a good time and a good education." |
|
"Once I found my place here, I was really happy. It might take a while to get into your groove and make true friends, but DU is a small enough school that sooner or later, you’ll feel right at home." |
|
"I love it here. I’ve had a great four years, and I’ve never considered transferring. I think the best part has been all the people I’ve met at school and in Denver. I’ve had so many good times here. I was looking at many other schools and wasn’t sure if DU was right for me coming in, but now I couldn’t be happier." |
|
"I love this school. At first, the people can seem really snotty and exclusive, but once you find your niche, you really start to feel at home. I think everyone’s experience is very unique and different because the school has so much to offer. It all depends what you are interested in and what you decide to get involved with." |
