[quote=Anonymous]This is anecdotal, but in a session on campus, we were told direct admission to engineering was 25%-30% and slightly lower out of state. So anyone confusing the overall admit rate with engineering should re-check. Did not end up enrolling but the facilities were impressive. I think a lot of the snark is 1) location, 2) over-emphasizing drugs which are now everywhere, and c) the rep of the school from 20-30 years ago. Are there still kids who party? Of course, but like any state school, a portion of the student population does not represent the total. It is probably even more unusual for people here. We have family in Colorado and visit often. Comparing the more formal, less outdoorsy and gov't centered focus of DMV to the vibe of Colorado in general - you are bound to have a reaction. [/quote]
