Colleges in Colorado Springs area

[Sherman_thetank]

I am kicking around the idea of moving to the Springs area with a couple of my buddies who going to be moving towards the end of this year. The only thing that has me still up in the air is college. I went for a while, and now im ready to go back, but i dont know anything about the schools. Do any of you have any thoughts on some of the schools for either notorcycle repair/ automotive, or Information Tech. (kind of a drastic differance, but im not quite sure on which one yet). Thanks in advance guys!

Full of spoiled little snots - very liberaland very expensive.

There's other various trade/tech schools around I just cant think of them right now.

Don't forget about De Vry for computer/technical. They are on the north side of town.

I went there about 20+ years ago (1985-1986) when they were still called Technical Trades Institute - got my Associates Degree in Engineering/Design Drafting.I don't know how they are now but back then the best I can say is....... meh.

I worked for a proprietary school like intellitec one time. Scam. Waste of money. Empty promises.

First decide on what you want to do before enrolling anywhere. Intellitec is going to promise you the world on a silver platter.

Seriously consider Colorado Technical University or maybe U.C.C.S.. But first decide on what you want.
