University of Denver
- Health & Safety

Safety

There is not very much crime here, yes a girl will occasionally get their but pinched by some random guy who seems to love doing that, but otherwise you're fine. I can honestly say i feel completely safe at all times when I'm on or near campus.

Decent Health & Counseling

The University of Denver's Ritchie Center also houses the Health & Counseling center on campus, which is a pretty great resource if you're feeling ill, either physically or emotionally.

The Health center is decent, and you can usually get an appointment for the same day if you give them a call early enough. The nurses/doctors seem professional enough, although they usually just seem to give you ibuprofen and soup for a wide range of symptoms.

The Counseling center is an even better resource. You usually talk to graduate students in Psychology, and you can schedule something like 7 or 8 weekly appointments every quarter for only about $5 or $10 a piece.

Luckily, I've never been sick enough to test the limits of the Health center, but as an on-campus resource, it works well.

Very Safe

Denver is really safe. They have a lot of security patrols all over campus that make you feel really safe.
