Under the University of Colorado System, UCCS has grown from a small satellite location to a small commuter campus, and now to the fastest growing school within the system, offering a University of Colorado degree in a uniquely UCCS way.

Throughout its existence, UCCS has been driven by students and their needs while being shaped by their expectations. Through growth, UCCS better offers increasingly exceptional opportunities, both inside and outside of the classroom.

Now, we’re home to more than 12,000 driven students, more than 800 experienced faculty members and more than 800 devoted staff members. On our awe-inspiring campus, we focus on providing an academically excellent environment at a value to students across the United States, and more than 80 nations.

The experience our students gain at UCCS provides an incredible service to our community of Colorado Springs and the greater southern Colorado region as a whole, with UCCS contributing about $600 million each year in economic impact in El Paso County alone.
