What is the difference between traditional, connecting/private-bath and apartment-style CU Denver housing?
Current CU Denver floor plans show shared and single bedroom configurations, shared or private bathrooms, kitchenettes and full kitchens depending on building and unit type.
How many students share a bathroom?
Current floor plans identify private bathrooms for some studios and shared bathrooms for multi-bedroom or multi-occupancy suites. Families should verify the exact selected unit.
What furniture is already provided?
Published Lynx Crossing floor plans list beds, desks, desk chairs, dressers and common-area furniture in applicable units.
What size sheets does my student need?
Families should match linens to the exact assigned floor plan because bed sizes vary between unit types.
How does laundry work?
The current Lynx Crossing amenities page and 2026–27 floor-plan page identify resident laundry as included.
Is Wi-Fi included in residence halls?
Wi-Fi, utilities and resident laundry are included for all published Lynx Crossing floor plans for 2026–27.
Can parents access a college student's education records if the student is our tax dependent?
FERPA's tax-dependent exception allows a postsecondary institution to disclose records to a qualifying parent without student consent. CU Denver may require documentation.
Does FERPA still apply if my CU Denver student is only 17?
FERPA rights transfer when a student turns 18 or attends a postsecondary institution at any age. A 17-year-old CU Denver student generally controls college education records.
Can the college contact parents during a serious health or safety emergency?
CU Denver may share relevant information with parents or other appropriate parties when necessary to protect the student or others. This does not create routine parental access.
When exactly can my student move in, and do they need an appointment?
The current move-in guide requires residents of Lynx Crossing and City Heights to select one appointment for access to unloading areas.
Can my student move in early?
Families should plan for the published move-in appointment and avoid travel plans that depend on early access.
