Claim 1: “the waiting list for those spaces can be as long as 800 students.”
DISPUTED
The claim states the waiting list can be as long as 800 students. However, the evidence from 'CU Connections' specifically states that HUB permits (main campus) are sold out with a '400 person wait', which directly contradicts the 800-student figure.

Claim 5: “approximately 11,000 students—all of whom, except for at least 1,000, live on campus.”
DISPUTED
Wikipedia confirms that as of fall 2023, UCCS had over 11,000 students. However, the claim that 'all of whom, except for at least 1,000, live on campus' (implying 10,000+ residents) is highly unlikely for a university of this size and is not supported by any provided evidence. No evidence confirms the residential ratio.
