Colorado State University, Fort Collins


Fort Collins, Colorado is located right at the the base of the Rocky Mountains foothills. The town offers a small town feeling with all the opportunity of a larger town. There are just under 150,000 people living in Fort Collins so it's not too big. Being so close to the Rocky Mountains allows for many outdoor activities. There are dozens of different places to hike and bike in the summer, and skiing and snowboarding in the winter. Downtown you will find many unique places to shop and tons of restaurants to choose from.

Colorado State University offers over 70 different majors. They also have many pre-professional programs, including medicine, law, and business. Cost of attendance is a little pricey, but the school and town has much to offer. For non-residents is costs a little over 37,000 dollars a year. However, they offer a program called the Western  Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) that if you qualify for will take about 10,000 dollars off admission cost. To qualify you must meet the GPA and ACT score requirements. This program makes CSU a little more affordable for non-residents. CSU is home of the rams. They have basketball, swimming, water polo, football, tennis, and many more sports. Colorado State University is a college that offers everything you could imagine. It is located in an amazing city filled with fun activities for everyone to enjoy.

I think my mom went to this college for a year she liked it but she got a chance to travel around Europe so she took that.
