Colorado school of Mines is a home. One of the best engineering schools in the country with a beautiful campus. Students can feel extremely confident that they will get a job/ go to grad school upon graduation.

I loved the campus. The view is amazing and the atmosphere felt very safe and educational. Their labs are very nice and the opportunities for engineering students are endless. I like the classes and the professors are very helpful. The food offered in the dining hall is not ideal but there are other good options around campus. My student ambassador was very helpful and answered almost all of my questions.

Mines is a great school for people that love to learn and love a challenge. I loved the campus. The view is amazing and the atmosphere felt very safe and educational. The workload is definitely difficult, but you can expect to find great professors that love what they teach and plenty of resources to help you succeed. You also are in the perfect location to have a ton of fun outside of school.

Very beautiful and new campus with mountain scenery. I have been challenged with complicated material that pushes me to my limits and helps prepare me for my future career as an engineer. In order to make it through this academic program you need to be committed and work very hard but the pay off is well worth it. The school provides great opportunities for careers or graduate programs after graduation.

Colorado School of Mines is an incredible school with lots of unique opportunities for its students. The people I've met here are amazing and it's great to be surrounded by people with similar goals. The only thing I would change would be increasing the number of teachers that are more conscious of what the students go through at the Colorado School of Mines.

Mines is a fantastic school for anyone interested in STEM. There are always a lot of activities to take part in when not grinding school work. Beautiful area with large mountains and cool views.

CSM was a great experience for college, there was not substantial hand-holding through classes. Professors know exactly what they are doing, and are extremely willing to help students. Housing is high quality. Main gripe is the food, it's not great.

School of Mines creates a strong feeling of community in a very strong academic setting. Students are given the opportunity to experiment and learn things that no other institution offers, and most importantly, encouraged to fail because that is how we learn the most.

Very challenging but highly rewarding. The school is very difficult but the people I have met, both students and faculty, have made the experience so much better.
