I received my doctorate here, and loved the campus, great people, great teachers.
Hello I am 13 years old and i was wondering if I can get in to this school when I am older it has always been a dream of myne.
This school is here to SELL useless degrees because people will BUY them. 1.5+ trillion student loan crisis. Enjoy paying off those loans well into your 40s! Good luck trying to buy a house, start a family or finding all those lucrative well paying jobs that don't exist anymore. Unless you're here to acquire marketable, applicable skills in the real world, don't waste your time, much less go into horrific life destroying debt for this tripe. You're NOT guaranteed a job but the school will get paid regardless. If college was supposed to open doors to opportunity, the prohibitive costs close those same doors.
If you are seeking a Soccer Scholarship at DU this is for you. Recently went to review and observe their Men's and Women's Soccer training. I am a National Soccer Coach and Advanced National NSCAA coach, the program i designed to get ideas and programs for our own sake. From a University level, you would expect a well put together and formatted training session. Was very disappointing. The phase 1 technical warm up was great and during such warm up they started to place small goals in an assumed preparation for a small sided phase 2 event immediately after.That did not happen, they actually moved to the other field after phase one, and went to some kind of full game phase 4 with some very strange rules that just did not mimic the true meaning of the game. Plus the coach decided to actually coach from the very top of bleachers, totally disconnecting themselves from the players, and not able to perform freeze plays and make any necessary adjustments. As a coach for 25 years, it was a bit concerning that a University coach would do such a thing, and not very USSF or NSCAA styled training as we all expected. After i reviewed the Men's portion, I didn't even bother to go the next day to review the Women's side.

Don't be naive, prospective students, you may not know what you're getting yourselves into! You're NOT guaranteed a job but the school will get paid regardless.
Went here. Paid cash. Graduated with business degree. My honest opinion 2 stars on a good day. If I could do it over again I'd go to CU or CSU.
Very impressive school. Beautiful campus, excellent professors and terrific programs.
I really think this University should be given more attention in this region, it has an amazing campus, and professors. Most important of all is their programs such as their summer camps.
I attended the University of Denver from 1969-1971. It was my introduction to the West which I will be forever grateful. I moved on to another college for my 3rd year of college, however my time at DU, which was a blur, was rewarding in many ways.
I can only speak about the Daniels College of Business. I enjoyed the time I was there and the faculty and staff are great! Worth the tuition.
This university was hosting me as an intern. I got to met a lot of professors and interact with graduates. The atmosphere was pleasant, but I did feel alone because it was rare to find another Native American on campus, on my own. Luckily, the program I was with worked with the multi cultural center at DU who put me in contact with the few Native American students on campus. Mind you though that this was during the summer so, I could be wrong to assume that there are few Native students.
I stayed in an apartment on campus and found it pretty nice. There was someone on my floor who would smoke pot every other day so the place smelled and there was a couple across from me who would loudly argue and slam doors that woke me up. However, I made the decision to not let these bother me and ruin my time here. When I did this, I began enjoy myself, met new people, and explore. There are a good amount of local pubs and restaurants close to the campus, just a walk away. I highly recommend the Jerusalem Restaurant and Pete's!
Another thing I should add is that it is very convenient that there are a couple of bus stops near the campus, as well as a stop for the Light Rail (a mode of transportation I recommend you try). Also, security here is pretty high, which made me feel safe most nights.
Overall, the DU campus is a small beautiful site and I would recommend visiting if you should get the chance. As far as cost or the quality of education a student receives here, I cannot comment on. However, if you do feel out of place here, especially if you are of the minority, like myself, please connect with the Multicultural Center. It is located near the DU Apartments right on University Blvd. They are nice and always willing to help. 🤓
Surprisingly small, but I love DU. I don't like how they hit me up for money, but I do love DU as a school.
Although, I do hate how their gym is open to professors and kids. It's creepy taking a shower and seeing a kid and elderly man as you exit the shower, which isn't all that private to begin with.
I graduated from DU and love this school. Great programs and fantastic facilities.
