We're the most diverse
research university in Colorado, providing a talent pipeline like no other.
Students who benefit from wrap-around services like academic advising, tutoring, mentoring, first-year experience initiatives, and wellness programs are more likely to earn their degrees and embark on their chosen careers. This is especially true for first-generation students, who make up nearly half of CU Denver's undergraduates. Support from our philanthropic partners allows us to provide these types of resources, creating avenues for support that attract a diverse and hard-working community of students and helps them stay on track.
THANK YOU
for supporting the University of Colorado Denver!
