Colorado College is a prestigious private liberal arts college in Colorado Springs known for its most popular majors, including ecology and evolutionary biology, political science and government, economics, and environmental science across 42 majors and 33 minors. The college is famous for its unique Block Plan — an innovative academic schedule that allows students to focus intensively on just one class every three-and-a-half weeks rather than balancing several courses throughout one semester. This immersive approach enables professors to take students on week-long camping trips, travel to Washington D.C. for political strategy classes, or provide deep language immersion experiences. The 99-acre campus is located in the heart of Colorado Springs, situated at the crossroads of the American Southwest and the Rocky Mountains, providing students with access to both urban amenities and exceptional outdoor recreation opportunities.
