Student review [#37658] for Liberal Arts
at Colorado State University

Fort Collins is a great college town with a vibrant and incredibly friendly community nestled in the foothills of Colorado. Beer lovers will love this place – there are over 11 microbreweries, including names like New Belgium, O’dells, Fort Collins Brewery and more! The people of this area go out of their way to make visitors feel welcome and go out of their way to help students as well. They’re also not afraid to tell it like it is, so if someone acts stupid enough, they’re told to stop. Several activities take place each month, ranging from large events like the New West Fest, which hosts over 80 groups in the Old Town, to smaller events like the annual New Belgium Tour de Fat, which brings together people dressed in the craziest outfits. on their bikes and take a ride. Due to close proximity to Fort Collins, there is off-roading and hiking literally 20-40 minutes away, not to mention Rocky Mountain National Park which is about an hour away. This city has the charm of a small college town with a vibrant community, fun nightlife, and is very welcoming to students.
