Hey Lola, CU has a great medical school. I would go ahead and apply if you are willing to part with the cash and have a definite interest in Denver. I've known several out-of-staters who are there right now, but it IS pretty tough for out-of-staters, just like at most other state schools. So, if you think you might really enjoy Denver and can make a case for wanting to go there, then give it a shot, but as the previous poster said it probably would be a waste just to add it on just for the heck of it. And if you want my opinion, Denver is one of the best places in the country to live, by far. Another plug from a native Coloradan. BTW, I love your avatar.
. I have known a few out-of-staters that were succesful in applying there, however, they all attended CU as undergrads. I am definitely not saying they are the ONLY out of state students who get in, they are just the ones I know. Unless your #s are well above their averages I would not apply. I don't know the exact percentages, but they interview very few out-of -state applicants; super stellar stats may help you get an interview at least. However, one year at nearly 60k is steep, that is assuming you get in-state tuition the following 3 years! In addition, the cost of living in Denver and the surrounding communities is not cheap. Not as bad as San Francisco, but not as good as most state schools in the mid-west, for example. If you are really interested in attending the school, I say you should apply. However, if you just want to add it for the heck of it I wouldn't waste your money!
