I am a freshman student at Metropolitan state university of Denver. For as long as I been going I was able to take advantage of resources that really help me such as tutoring and student employment. I am very new but so far I have no problems.

Metropolitan State University of Denver has been very kind to me all of my professors have been very kind and helpful in helping me out during school work for the price and broad subjects of majoring it is a good school

Rating 5 out of 5

Going to Metro is a great choice. For me, the biggest perk is it is much more affordable than other colleges. Going to school be comes a lot easier since you don’t have to pay an arm and a leg to go there. The only thing you’re losing in that is a little bit of college experience. Since they are a smaller college, they don’t have dorm or as much on campus housing. This can result in a little loss of student life.

Professors are nice and helpful, both in person and online. The campus is in the middle of downtown, this can sometimes raise issues with safety due to the homeless population, and incidents on RTD. Other than that I enjoy attending MSU Denver and appreciate the diversity and inclusiveness. The workload is manageable and you can build a schedule that works for you.

So, I am a concurrent enrollment student with my high school which I highly recommend. This college definitely helps with those pre rec. classes. If you're looking for a cheap college and a quick and easy major this is the place for you. Denver is a great city, but it is a capital meaning there is lots of traffic and sometimes sketchy people on campus, especially in the library.

The art program is an exceptional program. When I compare my experiences to those of private art schools I found my education is far more thorough and relevant to contemporary art standards.

I'm a student athlete at Metro State University of Denver. I am proud to represent this school and thankful to be part of such a big and beautiful campus in the heart of Denver. It is such a refreshing change from the smaller institution I attended previously. I regret nothing about transferring here. Go RoadRunners!

Overall, I am loving my time at MSU Denver. The diversity on campus is astounding! From ethnicity to disability status and religion, there are people from all different walks of life. My only issue is the treatment of Club sports teams, they are practically being forced to practice off campus unless they want to pay $200 to practice in a hallway for 2 hours.

Amazing school with lots of diverse staff and students. There’s so many great and easy to access resources to ensure opportunities after college. The classes are engaging and worth it!

There is not much to offer in the way of student housing besides expensive apartments nearby. This meant I had to commute to my in-person classes which often took 1 and 1/2 to 3 hours both ways with traffic. It became inconvenient and knowing I had that drive made me quick to leave campus after my classes and made it hard to get involved in anything on campus. Overall it didn't provide the college experience I was looking for and felt more like a job that I was commuting to. To Metro's credit, it is extremely cheap and I was able to get through most of my undergraduate work and can now transfer to a college that will give me the experiences I am looking for.

My experience at Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver) has been inspiring and transforming. The university's commitment to support and motivate, most definitely, fosters a vibrant and dynamic learning environment. There are numerous student organizations and activities that offer opportunities for personal and professional growth.
In conclusion, my time at MSU Denver has been fulfilling, thanks to its supportive community, dedicated faculty, and practical approach to education, undoubtedly contributes to my academic and personal growth.

Rating 4 out of 5

The school is very diverse, and very easy to get accepted into. I love this! I hate to see how many institutions pride themselves on exclusivity and the barriers to entry. That should not exist in academia!

I would like to see more food options for students on campus.

Metro has been an incredible opportunity for me as a freshman online student. The staff has been so helpful in getting me set up and my advisor has been responsive in helping me register for classes. I am excited to be able to obtain my degree fully online, as I work full-time. Metro provides incredible flexibility with its online classes and the campus is a great place to visit.

I transferred to MSU Denver from Grand Canyon University in 2022, and MSU Denver has been very good to me. While there are some downsides (like affordable living near campus), I have enjoyed many of my classes and many of my professors. Since perusing a more rigorous career, I’ve felt supported in it educationally and connection wise. Even though I commute, I’ve felt that I have a supportive community.

I haven’t started school quite yet but my experience has been amazing and eye opening so far. I didn’t apply myself in high school because I thought higher education was out of my reach. I didn’t even try to put in applications in my senior year. A few month ago I had an epiphany and decided to send some applications out for universities and Metro was the only one that gave me a chance. I couldn’t be more thankful for that.
