Come to Colorado to experience a state whose economy is as diverse as its geography.

Colorado: Study in the Raw American West
Settled by Native Americans for over 13 millennia, well before being discovered by Spanish explorers and later made a US state, Colorado is a place that embraces its rugged history and geography as much as its culture and industry. Colorado's nature alone makes it a state of unmatched grandeur and beauty. From its mighty rivers to its inspiring Rocky Mountain peaks, Colorado offers perhaps the last true incarnation of the American West, not to mention a thoroughly diverse setting for students pursuing higher education.
