Ever wondered what resources are free for you to use as an MSU Denver student? Look no further, CBUS has you covered!
November 14, 2025
As time passes by quickly and students turn to alumni in the blink of an eye, we continue to realize how little our students know about the extent our university reaches to help its students out. As a commuter school, MSU Denver students tend to fly by their classes quickly, unaware of all the tools at their disposal, and lately, it’s been brought to our attention that although MSU Denver’s resources continue on expanding, students’ awareness of them are at a placebo – so we decided to change that rhetoric.
CBUS has taken the initiative of compiling an all-encompassing list of the ample free resources available at MSU Denver that students can use during, and in some cases after, their time at our college. Below, you will find this itemized list, with a link to each resource and a brief description of what that resource has to offer.

I’ve made friends with all the faculty and staff in our departments, been given access to resources and help, as well as the opportunity to learn from every single one of these people one-on-one.
