For a bit of context, I am an incoming exchange student from Asia for Spring 2025. Being my first time in the states, i am quite excited about what university life in US has to offer. I dont plan to study too hard and wanna enjoy my time there. Would love to hear advice on how I can make my exchange enjoyable. Any pro tips/Hacks are much appreciated

Any online group or people looking to make a group for incoming exchange students in Spring 2025 Semester?

Anyone in CMCI or CINE know if taking film/production classes will get you a free creative cloud account? I got a free one in high school for the year bc i was in a photoshop class and wondering if any courses offer the same at CU.

I'm transferring from a CC to a CU in the spring and need to take psych stats before fall 2025. It seems like it's universally one of the hardest classes for psych undergrads so I'm trying to optimize my experience. If I take it this spring I'll have a full semester to learn the material but I'll have to divide my focus between other classes and the inevitable learning curve of being in a new environment. I know it will be fast paced if I take it in the summer but I wouldn't have any other classes. Is there an obvious better option? Thank you!

Hi, I'm a transfer student trying to register for courses. One of them has a co-requisite so I added that one to my cart alongside the other. But, when I try to continue to enrollment, it says that I do not meet the co-requisite even though I am trying to add it as well. I would really appreciate some help if anyone knows what to do! Thank you so much!

I paid 70$ when finishing my application on common app but at the application status page there is a red cross next to the application fee and I can’t find where I can pay anything on the website, is there an extra fee I need to pay?

Which dorm would y’all recommend for the best community? Like friendship in the halls, most open, that type of thing

applied to arts and sciences and have more than 15 family member that have went here but i’m just wondering if my gpa will hold me back from getting accepted so please lmk

This post is meant very sincerely: if you’re an alumni or someone over 30 going to a CU game on your own, with no current relation to the school, please try to make sure you’re not being weird to young students. We’re just trying to watch our team play and it’s deeply uncomfortable to see grown adults act juvenile because they drank a few too many beers. You can also always watch it on a TV if you know you get too drunk.

Does anyone have any tips on how to craft the personal statemenet/research statement?

I am having a hard time grappling how a personal statement can also be a research statement or what the expectations are.

Blessings I am a Colorado Native with autism and I will be having a show out in Boulder at Roots Music Project in February 2025.. I was wondering if there is someone I can talk to about possibly finding a student from Boulder who can open up for me..? This will be a payed gig!

Hi I was wondering if anyone has taken World Music: Africa, Europe, and the Americas and if so if they could give me a little insight on how the class is and if it’s considered a easier class as I need to take a global perspectives class to meet gen Ed requirements and this class would help me do that. Thanks for any help.

Hi everybody I need some advice about my Spring Transfer Application. I applied in September and didn’t hear anything until i called in november to ask why it’s taking so long. they said they needed my Final Fall Grades to continue review. i had to clear up that i’m transferring in spring and that i can’t give them final grades until december, so they instead had me submit my in progress grades. Like 2 days after i submitted the grades, they asked for the final grades AGAIN. I cleared this up AGAIN and they told me it was under review. A couple days ago they asked for my Final Grades AGAIN and i cleared it up AGAIN only for them to tell me i need to meet with my pre-transfer counselor for them to review it. the housing application closes on december 2nd and registration opens then, i kinda need a decision before then if i don’t want to be homeless. Is there like a delay on decisions or something? i submitted it on september 18th. what do i do other than keep calling them? am i even going to be accepted? what happens if i am, will i just be super behind on everything you do before classes start? i’m so done with this.

I am a prospective student interested in both computer science (offered at the College of Engineering and Applied Science) and biochemistry (offered at the College of Arts and Sciences). If I wanted to major in both (assuming I can cope with the workload), what would that look like across colleges? Is it even possible?

Has anyone interviewed with CU Boulder for a full-time position? Any insights on the interview process are much appreciated.

Sko gang!

I just applied to CU Boulder for Psychology. They're ranked towards the back end of the top 20 for the major. However, the out of state tuition is very high and due to the fact that I come from an upper middle class family I doubt I'll get too much aid. Is it worth it to go or should I just go to my state school(UConn) assuming I don't get in to any better schools, which I don't think I will.

Looking at housing for next year (my sophomore year) and hoping to stay in CU dorms. I've heard a lot of different things about availability of dorms, but most people just talk about cost. I'm hoping that I can stay on campus because I'm not sure if I can afford the rent. Transferring into Chemical Engineering over approximately the next year (from Anthropology). Any advice? Willing to accept any campus housing

I’m curious if CU Boulder gives this and if so how much and how common is it and what GPA range do they give to?

ello, brazil here speaking. in 2 days ago, an ARG (Alternative Reality Game) of a videogame "Enigma of Fear" started. a poster was put in this university, but we couldn't find it yesterday, in the outside of the c.u. if anyone that study in the university can find this poster OR the phone number IN the poster, the community will be very grateful. the poster is similar to the image, and it is EXACTLY were the coordinates and the place in the reddit link on the bottom of this message. if the poster isn't there, please, send a photo of the place without the poster.

the enigma of fear community is grateful.

I’m flexible with availability and can include med school application advice at no extra charge. Rate is $50/hr, but I’m open to negotiating depending on how many hours you need. I know how overwhelming studying can be, and I’d love to help you navigate it. DM me if interested!
