Colorado Christian University Hosts Largest Preview Event in University History

Colorado Christian University recently hosted Discovery Days 2025 - the largest preview event in the University's history - bringing 275 high school juniors and seniors from across the country to campus on July 14-17 to experience life at one of America's fastest-growing Christian universities. More than half of the attendees traveled from 25 states outside Colorado, and the event also welcomed four international students, underscoring CCU's growing national and global reach.

Discovery Days is CCU's signature on-campus preview program. Students attended breakout sessions in their areas of interest, joined faculty-led discussions, experienced CCU's vibrant chapel culture, and participated in activities that showcase life in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.

"Discovery Days is a window into what makes CCU unique - a university that is serious about academic excellence and deeply committed to our Christ-centered mission," said Dr. Neal Anderson, Vice President of Student Life and Traditional Enrollment for the College of Undergraduate Studies. "To see this many students choose to spend their week with us, exploring God's call on their lives, is a tremendous encouragement."

"This event reflects CCU's growing national reach and reputation," said CCU President Eric Hogue. "We're honored that students are willing to travel from across the country to encounter our community and catch a glimpse of the distinct and compelling Christ-centered college experience that CCU provides. Discovery Days 2025 was a joyful reminder of the Kingdom impact CCU continues to have."

The record-breaking success of Discovery Days 2025 underscores CCU's continued growth and its steadfast commitment to preparing the next generation of leaders. As students departed campus inspired and equipped with a clearer sense of calling, CCU looks forward to welcoming many of them back as future Cougars-ready to thrive in an academically excellent and Christ-centered environment.
