What Students Are Saying
Regis University is a small, co-ed, Jesuit University located in Northern Denver. The campus is a gorgeous arboretum, consisting of over 1,000 trees, 80 genuses, and 290 species. Because of the size, its easy to get to know your peers, professors, and the surrounding community quickly, and finding your place is a natural process.
Katie from Denver, CO
Regis is a small, beautiful campus that consists of people who are welcoming to others and people who truly want to pursue a good education. Regis is moderately diverse, with students from all over the country, as well as some international students. Regis is focused not only on bettering the education of the students, but bettering their lives and personalities in all ways.
Anon from Aurora, CO
Cura personalis is one of my favorite aspects of Regis - it means "care for the whole person." One of the main goals Regis holds is personal development, both academically and spiritually. The aim on each individual student at Regis makes the atmosphere feel welcoming and quite like home.
