You may be working with a group of students interested in health care, public health, research, etc.  Each academic year we will have Professor Presentations scheduled which you may attend - spaces are limited, so be sure to contact us and let us know you are interested in participating.  The calendar will be published on this website in early September.   Please see the list of dates and presentations on the right of this page - and use the Google​ link to sign up for one or more presentation dates. 

If you schedule an appointment to meet with pre-admissions advisors, to attend pre-collegiate or a Professor Presentation - you'll need to park on campus. Here is a link to Visitor Parking at the Anschutz Medical Campus.  Most visitors park in the Georgetown Lot close to Education II North.  This is a pay lot ($1/hour; $5/all day) - you can pay at any of the several kiosks on the perimeter of the parking lot.  RTD routes to the Anschutz Medical Campus can be searched at www.rtd-denver.com
