Itinerary

  1. Stop 1

    Passing by

    Explore CU Boulder's main campus with a current student as your guide. You'll walk past the dorms and dining halls, the libraries and best study spots, the rec center, and the academic buildings where classes actually happen. You'll see the University Memorial Center student union, the campus bookstore, and the everyday spots students pass through between classes. Set right under the Flatirons, this is the real student experience, not a scripted admissions tour. Your guide gives you the honest take on housing, classes, clubs, and daily life as a Buff.

  2. The Hill, Boulder CO

    Passing by

    The student neighborhood next to campus and the heart of CU social life. We show you the off campus houses students rent, the fraternity and sorority houses on Greek row, and the restaurants, coffee shops, and bars everyone actually goes to. You'll see the local shops and the hangout spots that define a weekend in Boulder. This is the half of college life the official campus tour skips, told by a student who lives it.
