Auraria Higher Education Center

You know… One of the schools you just want to get done with as fast as possible.
Students are nice. Campus and Denver are just horrible for studying though. Libraries loud and overcrowded. Make sure you have a good study spot at home. Unlike Madison Wisconsin, San francisco, and virtually all other cities I have lived in, the study atmosphere sucks — you have to get lucky with one of 5 desks in the science building or happen upon an unlocked classroom if you want any type of decent study place. How can loud– ass starbucks and panera bread be the best place to study in the city. Even the denver public library is louds as F#@k. t Parking is a bitch — $ 5.00 to park. (maybe went up). Science courses are difficult here. Buses drop you a mile away if commuting from boulder or wherever. No homey college feel. Only good drop off point is if you live along the light rail.
MSU is expensive for what you get. Campus and buildings house multiple colleges so way too many students all vying for the same resources.
understaffed and especially rude smug English lady answers phone in the registration area, I honestly think she has a personality disorder or something because even if you call with a pleasant tone she is still a straight cunt (I actually tried different approaches)… Also remember when you call to get something done with financial aid make sure you ask for an advisor or a counselor (can;t remember which one)… if you ask for the wrong one you get a student who act like they know what the f@$k is going on when they really have no clue. I always ask «are you a student worker or are you a actual full time employee you little fuck.» and then I have them transfer me to a god-​damned adult.
Go here because you have to, not because you want to. If you want a college experience go to boulder or out of the state.
Summer courses are much more relaxed, campus is empty. Grading is easier in the summer as well because teachers take it easy on themselves.
That being said, students are largely nice. It isn’t a «go getter» college so most students are friendly. A few type A egos but not as many as at a well respected University — but the ones you do come across can seem especially dickhead-​ish because they stand out.
Not a self respecting university and you can feel that when you attend. I think the science departments of CU denver and Metro state have it out for students.

Going here you would get the impression that this campus would seem enclosed. I mean, some of the buildings look kind of depressing unless you go to the Tivoli, Library, North, or Science buildings. Anyhow the closeness to downtown is a huge plus. We get to have a chance to explore and enjoy a school break. And people are always crawling about in the day hours where ever you go which keeps the campus feeling ‘alive.’ Because I am always here, this place is an A-​OK 3-​star but I am sure visitors will enjoy.

Light rail service drops you off on the 10^th St mall. Hard to find where your going if you don’t know. The north building is nice. Attended a presentation here. Classrooms are so nice I may go back to school.

Alright I ONLY go here because my bank has a branch there and it’s closeish to where I work so I’m mostly only acquainted with the Tivoli building but the walk there is nice and the people who work on campus who had to show me where to go were really nice. It’s a pretty campus — makes me kinda want to in-​role in just one class…
The Tivoli is really nice and smells amazing every time I go in because of the foods they serve there. I hope to go sometime when I have more time so I can checkout the book store…

Most of the time I have been to the Auraria Campus I usually am at the Tivoli building. For the Tivoli I give three stars. The only thing it has going for it is the Starz Film Center there. I hear they might be leaving, if they do then it would drop to two stars. Nothing is too memorable that has set up shop here. As far as the rest of the campus goes it is actually not so bad. Kind of pretty actually. Everyone that I knows that goes to school here likes it and enjoys the campus grounds and I can see why. I really doubt though it is closed as this Unilocal entry suggests.
