I'm so sorry to break this to you. But YOU are wrong. If you first read the title of the post, it is "University of Colorado BOULDER vs. Colorado Springs vs. Denver." That is 3 things, and yes they did mention Boulder. In addition, if you re-read the question, it states:

"Does anyone have any experience with any of these? Is there an academic difference or variablility among THE THREE? I know Boulder is bigger and is the "main" one, as reflected by the significantly higher OOS tuition, but is there a real differentiator in the quality of UG education?"

So in the title, and in the question, THREE schools are mention, not two. They also ask about the ACADEMIC difference, not if one or more are commuter schools. You are rude, obnoxious, and as evidenced by your post, clearly cannot read. The next time you feel like it's appropriate to lash out at someone on an anonymous site, why don't you go back and make sure that it's not YOU who needs to get an f'ing clue?

I'm assuming you're a CU Boulder alum and feel compelled to let you know you're NOT giving the school a very good name...

Absolutely not true. Check out this list of notable alums. Chevron's recently named CEO is a grad as well. CU Boulder is a great school, in an incredibly gorgeous environment. Your son/daughter could do a lot worse than spend 4 years in a fantastic university town with great school spirit, super smart kids, top programs in engineering, astronomy, chem and more.

You can't be this dumb? Please look at the two schools in bold that she is talking about. What are YOU talking about?

+1 she derailed thus entire thread going on an alumni and factual rampage. LOL

Note: everyone including OP knows Boulder is not a commuter college. There is only one person here who has no idea what is going on.

Can we get back in track now?

CU Denver offers very good education. Even though it is not ranked high on Forbes and such sites, but you will notice that CU Boulder is rapidly falling in ratings. If you are going for college experience, definitely Boulder is a better option. CU Denver graduates are employable, as many as commuter kids and adults. If your kid is susceptible to partying, CU Boulder will be worse than many other party schools. I know I kid who smoked pot for a year and a half and did no school work. Depends on your kid. I don't know anything about CU Colorado Springs. There you are better off with Colorado College if your kid can get in. If your kid is into health career you can't go wrong with CU Anschutz. Many students enroll first n health classes at CU Denver then go onto grad school there, or start with BS program in health prerequisites or integrated nursing program.

Denver has ZERO dorms. There is your answer

That said, you can move somewhere in Denver, establish residency and get in state tuition the following year. But not a good college experience.
