DINING HALL

Fresh, savory, and many options

Residential students eat all their on-campus meals in the dining halls and the day students join us for lunch.  These bright sparkling dining halls are serving fresh, hot food, often to order, and with clear vegetarian and vegan options at all meals.  Food allergies can be handled with notice; eat local and enjoy the yumminess!

COLLEGE CLASSROOMS

Great places to learn!
We are in the same classrooms college kids enjoy during the year.  So we get high-speed internet and advanced equipment.  We are committed to an extraordinary college of veterinary medicine classroom experience that allows for hands-on learning with talented, trained instructors and a proprietary curriculum designed to jump-start your knowledge of animals.

EVENINGS IN DOWNTOWN DENVER

Off-campus fun! 

In the evenings our residential students can walk to a huge variety of places!  When we leave campus, we always travel with staff and students together; students are not allowed to venture forth by themselves.  That all being said… many of the evenings we expect that the students will want to hang out in the dorms, in the social spaces, and just chill with their new friends.  Get a taste of what a college of veterinary medicine might be like… and maybe even check out a Rockies game!  The options are endless!

We are so excited to be staying on the UC – Denver campus! Our students will be staying in double rooms, and having a real college experience!  We have confirmed a trip to a Rockies game each session… it is not required, simply add it on during registration. or before your session starts!
