Summer Experience Survey

Fill out the survey by September 30th for the chance to win a Panino’s Gift Card!

“How do CC students spend their summer months?” is a popular question asked by students, alumni, families and employers.

In fact, you’ve probably asked “What types of summer experiences do other students pursue?” at least once in the past.

Everyone knows that summer is an important time for CC students to gain experience and exposure to potential post-graduate interests. And our entire community benefits from learning about the wide variety of ways that students use this time for personal, academic, and professional enrichment.

Please help us by sharing your own summer experiences by completing this brief survey. Fill out the survey by Monday September 30 to be entered in a drawing for the chance to win a $20 Panino’s gift card!

Looking for career guidance? Join the Colorado College Student-Alumni Mentoring Program for fall 2024!

Our program will match you with a CC alum or friend of the College who is excited to learn about your career interests and share their own experiences and expertise! Mentorship offers many opportunities — helping in career exploration, promoting career and scholarly success, and building important, often lasting relationships with others.

Each student will be paired with a dedicated mentor and matched as closely as possible to similar registration question responses. Once matched, students and mentors will meet three or more times. Discussion guides will be provided to you engage in conversation. If you choose to continue to mentorship after the program ends in December, that is completely fine.

Sign up to participate by September 18: Click here for more details and to join the program!
