In 1927, the City College was established at the University of Denver as the Evening Division for the College of Liberal Arts. Courses taught at the college were equivalent to the liberal arts courses taught at the University of Denver. In 1936, the name was changed to the University College in order to prevent confusion that was caused by the use of the title City College. The University College closed in 1946.
