About Off-Campus Housing Near Colorado College
Colorado College is a small liberal arts school of about 2,050 students, three blocks from downtown Colorado Springs and three miles from the mountains. The big quirk is the Block Plan: students take one class at a time in intense three-and-a-half-week blocks, each ending with a four-day Block Break that empties campus toward the peaks. With Pikes Peak over 14,000 feet and Garden of the Gods, a free public park of red sandstone, minutes away, students ski, hike, climb, and camp constantly. Downtown sits steps from campus along Tejon Street, with art walks, festivals, and the farmers market. Housing mixes traditional halls, historic mansions, and apartments. Between hockey and the Aspen block-break bike trip, it's a mountain-town school.
Colorado College Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
Colorado College requires students to live on campus for their first three years, so you typically don't reach the off-campus market until senior year. Most students stay in campus housing through those years.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Seniors are automatically cleared to move off, since on-campus housing isn't guaranteed for them anyway, and underclassmen can apply for an exemption with documentation such as living with a parent or guardian in Colorado Springs, being married or in a domestic partnership, or other qualifying circumstances. Students at Colorado College rent in a regular city market rather than a dense student district.
Lease Timing
Because you are renting in a standard Colorado Springs market, leases look like ordinary residential ones. Read carefully for who covers snow removal, heat, and yard upkeep, and confirm the security deposit terms. Colorado law sets specific deposit-return timelines, so know your rights before you sign.
