Hey guys, im actually in Boulder for the first time right now checking out the university. From what ive seen in two days, the town seems pretty cool, and the campus and surrounding area is really beautiful.
Has anyone gone to CU or know someone who went, that has gone to the school or been on CUFST that could give me some advice/opinion on how it was?
I know there are some threads on this already but most of them are old, so please help me out!
 
Dude no way. My sister is there right now ... i forget why she went. She is going to be there next year.
 
I'm an officer for CUFST next year! I would definitely do it. CUFST has nothing to do with being good, but everything to do with loving skiing and partying and wanting to learn from and shred with a lot of really chill and like-minded people.
 
i go to cu, im on cufst and its so much fun, it's like a drinking team with a skiing problem.

Boulder is the shit, come here
 
To add to that, I joined this year for the first time and really regret not doing it sooner. It's so much fun.
 
i wish i could afford to go to school at uc boulder, out of state is ridiculously expensive. but i know some people who like ittttt.
 
from what I understand about CUFST, you basically pay dues and you get pro-forms and get coached by david lesh... sooo yeah...
 
I go to CU. Pretty sweet deal.... make friends with ski-condos immediately. And CUFST is pretty cool, my roommate is the president, or so he says.... and they seem to have fun.

Hot beaches, sweet mountains, and lots of green now....
 
Sound really cool. How much would you say it cuts into academics? Would it be possible to be in the honors program at CU and still be in CUFST?
 
i checked out CU boulder a while back and it came down to i could afford 1 year at cu or 4 years in state. money won that battle, i'm still on the east coast
 
depends on the person... cu is a really fun place, with lots of people, so you are likely to find your crowd, but the school def isnt for everyone. Its easy to get lost, so I would only come here if you want an adventure. My experience is that it is really hard to find a balance here. It is easy to party a lot and have lots of fun... which takes a toll on your grades, but when you put more time into school it is harder to keep your social life going. That said, I am an ee major so depending on what you want to study, you might have a different experience.
 
exactly, i didnt join cause i dont need a team to ski, but i do ski with a bunch of kids on the team and theyre cool, so its up to you. CU is a pretty cool school, lots of parties, but also a lot of douchebag frat bros and spoiled kids. but you can find cool people. i have about 50 days this year but the drive to the mountains sucks. its a cool state school but it is lacking in some things, just dont come here expecting to ski everyday. im a little drunk right now so that my help your decision haha.
 
that sucks ! why didn't you check out like utah or anywhere else, boulder has one of the most expensive out of state tuitions in the country i heard.
 
When I first visited and heard the out of state I almost shit my pants, but when I started visiting more and more schools, I realized that there are a lot of schools with higher tuitions.
 
i've already confirmed coming there next year. i've only heard positive things about the school, and its such a sick campus. pretty fucking excited to say the least.
