[quote=Anonymous]My DS got this same offer from CU Boulder (OOS). He can accept place on waitlist or do Verto in Fall with guaranteed admission in Spring 2027 (if he maintains a 2.7 GPA). I saw a Reddit thread about it and it seemed as if some countries have dorm-like setting/meal plan and others it’s like apartments and kids in charge of every meal themselves, so that’s something I’d consider when choosing country of study.

It seems, especially for the kids in dorms, they may be in with other Verto participants (so like, the Hamilton and Colgate and Syracuse and Boulder kids all jumbled together?) and the courses are pretty limited to gen ed. DS is probably going to decline because he wants to start classes in his major fall of freshman year, plus Boulder isn’t a better choice financially than other schools where he’s been accepted as a fall student. And apparently housing isn’t guaranteed at Boulder in the spring when he comes back? I don’t want him (or me) to have to navigate that. Probably at a smaller school like Colgate they can guarantee housing at least.

Also at least for CU Boulder it says the cost for 1 SEMESTER can be as high as $33,500. That includes housing but not airfare or food. So potentially more expensive than one on-campus semester.[/quote]
