You need two years to get into the University of Utah, and then it is recommended that you have at least three years for both Denver and Boulder. Honestly, if you have good enough grades they will most likely let you in no matter what.

You don't need to be fluent just need to pass the classes. Go to colorado too it's so sick.

Come to Boulder. It will be the best decision you have ever made.

Depends on what you want to study, if you're trying to pick the best ski college its the U of U. Both CU and DU are 2-3 hours from skiing, while U of U is 30 mins away.

I go to DU and for my major it's either 8 or 12 credit hours so a year or under

Not gonna deny that U of U is better for skiing but I get to Abay from DU in an hour when it isn't snowing. Breck in 1.5 hours. It's nice being so close to Abay since they have one of the longest seasons. Last season it was October 15-June 14. As long as you don't leave during i70 peak times then traffic is nothing like people say it is.

Yeah Denver is a bit closer than boulder but still. Compared to 25-35 minutes its a huge difference really.

Especially where places like snowbird can be open for 6+ months as well. Still a pretty long ski season.

true that. When it snows it's even worse here. I was driving back from Breck last year and left around 3pm during gnarly storm. Way too many city fuck bois thought their fwd sedan will make it in a foot pow and caused a legit 20 car pile up. CDOT shut down i70 and it took us 8 fucking hours to get back to Denver.

I ended up taking a piss twice in the middle of the highway while traffic was at a stand still. It was like 10 degrees and nuking, some people turned off their cars who were low on gas. We ran out of water and had to drink light beer for a few hours to stay hydrated... ive seen i70 at its worst so everything else seems minor hahah

Can't go wrong with either place. I like the vibe of Colorado more tho. U of U just makes sense with close skiing tho

i gotcha. i love DU and I love going to CU but U of U is probably better for skiing the most. DU/CU skiing is kinda just on the weekends but U of U, u can ski pretty much everyday
