CU SUCKS. Ok boulder is an awesome city and it looks awesoem along wiht the scenery, but the life here is just bad. IF you are not a frat person,(and the frats are aweful), then you will never have anything to do. Every weekend everyone talks about the hill and the parties but if your a guy you will never get in. As for dumb rich girls you will find plenty. There is no sence of achivement in here and everyone wants to party daily and smoke weed. As far as the academics you can take bussiness and fly your way threw,or you can take bio or chem. and suffer threw classes of 300+ with little guidance. The professors are there to help if you seek it out which is nice. If you want a good school with community, dont come here.

If you're from Colorado, CU Boulder is a good choice.
Don't come here if you're from out of state though, unless you have a lot of money and just want to have fun.

The education certainly isn't worth $30k a year (out of state). I honestly feel as though my time here has been quite wasted...

a lot of professors hand out A's like candy and dont expect you to even attempt to think.
The education is average for a state school, definately not worth 30k if you're from out of state. 30k worth = MIT, not boulder.

the city is very nice though, as is the environment...
its just expensive and not really worth what you have to pay, especially the education.I regret coming here simply because the education really isn't worth the money
