Immersion. That’s the term used to describe being deeply engaged or involved in the moment or in your surroundings. Similar to the process of studying abroad, the goal of campus housing is to help you experience firsthand what student life is all about -- immersed in the possibilities that the university has to offer. So whether you’re an undergraduate in Boulder, or a graduate in Denver, campus housing may be just what you’re looking for.
