For a new student who needs to
settle down in an on-campus apartment,
Housing and Dining Services
is the place to go. Contact earlier and confirm before coming can help reduce
bumpy start. Direction in Fort Collins can be pointed easily from the
Mountain, which locates on the west and noticeable from practically
everywhere in town. Maps of locations around campus and Fort Collins
are provided at
Maps: Colorado State University.
There are many types of
public transportation to, from, and
around Fort
Collins. Shamrock shuttle runs route
Denver
International Airport (DIA) - Fort Collins daily. They also
offer a door-to-door service with a little extra expense. Their
price and schedule can be checked at
Shamrock Airport Express website.
To get around places in
town,
Transfort is a bus system operated
in Fort Collins. Using bus here may be quite a culture shock for
people who are familiar with a rush competing bus life in Bangkok, Thailand.
Here we do not have to hurry either to get on or off the bus.
Despite Fort
Collins is a nice town, going to see other places is always a
good idea.
Greyhound
is a bus system covering United States mainland and, of course, it
has a stop in Fort Collins. Taking a greyhound is a good experience,
but car rental and airplane are much cozier choices. Fort Collins has a city airport, called "Fort
Collins/Loveland Airport (FNL)". Unfortunately, so far,
this airport has commercial flights only to and from Las Vegas.
There are a
bunch of websites offering information and images of Fort Collins.
Among them, you might get some pictures of Colorado State University
and Fort Collins from:
-
Coloradoan, which is a local Newspaper. Their news and
articles, especially lifestyle section, may give you some perception
about culture, people, friendly atmosphere, and what's going on
here.
- If you are a person of "One picture describes more than thousand
words.", you may like
Landscape imagery.
- Besides professional media, CSU has many student operated media such as newspaper "Collegian",
radio "KCSU",
and TV "CTV".
Although, you
are not a student interested to attend Colorado State University,
Colorado
is a nice country to explore year round especially for whom loving
adventures and outing.
To close this
descriptive links page conventionally, we appreciate all visitors and hope you
