When your child leaves for college,
It’s a big deal. If they come to Adams State University, you can be sure they’re in good hands. For 100 years, we’ve been preparing students to become successful professionals and engaged citizens.
We all want your child to have a rewarding and memorable college experience. Our secret is a unique culture that’s rooted in caring and personal relationships. Nestled in the San Luis Valley, we’re a close-knit community that values diversity, trust, respect, and civility. Likewise, we take teaching seriously. Our faculty get to know their students as a result of small class sizes and commitment to individual attention.
That individual attention extends from the classroom to all aspects of campus life. We offer support services to help students through difficult learning and personal transitions. And we offer a variety of extracurricular activities to complement their rigorous academic experience.
All this adds up to the most important point – Students at Adams State are free to discover their own talents and strengths in a welcoming environment:
