Key Plus Community

The Key Plus community is an optional sophomore year program for up to 75 students who participated in the Key Academic, Key Service, Key Explore or Key Health Professions Communities during their first year at Colorado State University (CSU). Key Plus is still an academically focused living learning community at CSU but works more closely with students to develop strong leadership and career decision-making skills. If you apply and are selected for participation, you will be a member of the 11th class!
