"The Career Development Center is an amazing resource that I feel like few students in the College of Business utilize. I went there for a LinkedIn seminar and learned how to make my profile more presentable. I was even able to get a free blazer and headshot for my LinkedIn profile. On top of that, I completed two internships while at UCCS – both of which I found from attending Career Networking Night."

"I definitely wanted to play soccer in college, but it was important to me to choose the school based on academics, environment and team culture, too, and UCCS checked all of those boxes for me. I was able to meet professors, advisors, other personnel and the rest of the soccer team while visiting campus. I really loved the team culture – it’s a great program that prioritizes academics as well as athletic performance, and values coming together as a team to achieve goals."
