What Students Are Saying

Apply! As long as Metro has the major that you're looking for, you couldn't get a better deal on college.
Ashlynn from Morrison, CO
I believe the most important part of school is to stay on top of assignments. Getting to class on time is also a huge part of success, when class starts, class starts. There is no backtracking or filling in. Most of college routine is picked up by the students, a person has to discipline themselves in order to learn the way of the student. With a great environment at Metro, it is easy to get int he groove of college life.
Ricardo from Aurora, CO
If you don't mind the big moving school then it's for you. They offer a lot of great programs there. It might not be the whole dorm living college but there is still a lot of life there.
Joanna from Denver, CO
the university provide countless resources in order to help new and returning students thrive in the environment that msu denver creates. whether it is additional support from peer leaders in classes, or willing professors who's goal is for each of their students to succeed, the students and teachers alike do everything in their power in order to help students.
jahalia from louisville, co
Make sure you ask a lot of questions! Questions are essential to getting you where you need to go.
Victoria
The best thing for prospective students to do is stay on top of homework, and actually go to class and you'll be fine!
levi from aurora, CO
If you have health insurance and are not participating in the school's health insurance program, make sure you submit your waiver early because you will probably run into problems with it.

teachers are your best friend and just want to help.
Luke from Highlands Ranch, CO
Get to know financial aid and how it works early on, and don't be afraid to ask questions - those who work in there are mostly students and will know how to work with you. Don't be afraid to talk to your instructors and get to know them - office hours not only help you understand the work involved for the class, but also help you make connections with professors. And always keep contact with other students - you'll be able to help each other out!
Jaclyn from Lakewood, CO
