What are the popular events and traditions at Colorado Christian University?

CCU's recurring campus calendar centers on the academic year and its Christian identity, including new-student activities, chapel programming, and community gatherings. These provide opportunities to meet peers outside class, though the schedule and format can change.

Prospective students seeking a particular annual celebration, performance, or homecoming event should check the current university calendar before planning a visit. A recurring event on the Lakewood campus may not translate into the same experience for online or adult students.

What are the student housing and dining options at Colorado Christian University?

CCU offers university-operated undergraduate housing on its Lakewood campus. Housing availability should not be mistaken for a guarantee of a particular room or building, and students should review the current housing application, eligibility rules, and deadlines.

Reported housing information indicates that 73% of students in the measured residential population lived on campus, while 27% commuted. Residence facilities have high-speed internet access, and first-year students are permitted to register or park a car on campus, subject to current parking policies. Those percentages should not be applied to the entire university's online and adult enrollment.

Students comparing residence options should look at room type, contract length, meal-plan requirements, and dining hours together. A meal plan that works for someone on campus most days may be less practical for a commuter or a student with clinical placements. Off-campus renters should budget separately for transportation and expenses that may be bundled into an on-campus housing contract.
