"It’s about you and what you want. I feel like CMU makes you tap into who you are more than trying to rely on everything else around you. It was a wake up call to look inside yourself."
Donte King-DeFlora
"Now that I have been in the working world and know more about what experiences people who went to other universities get, I could not be more thankful that I chose CMU. The hands-on experience is unparalleled."
Camille Arnn
"I don’t think I would have had the same hands-on experience and growth that I got from CMU had I gone to one of the other Colorado universities. It exceeded my expectations."
Joey DeMers
"I loved the professors at CMU and had some great mentors during my time. I couldn’t have gotten that if I went to a larger university. CMU offers this really special, unique attention to the students that go there."
Katie Berland
"If I stayed at the larger university, I don’t think I would be where I am today. I had to come to CMU for all of this to happen."
