What the Data Says About University of Colorado
Signature stat: H-1B volume
University of Colorado's most extreme placement is sponsorship scale: 212 H-1B LCAs rank higher than 100% of sponsors in this corpus (#202 of 51,370).
Below-median disclosed pay
Disclosed pay runs low: $80,254 median trails 88% of wage rows and sits under the $124,488 national median.
No OSHA record despite scale
University of Colorado sponsors 212 H-1B positions but carries no employer OSHA DART rate here — at this filing volume the gap usually reflects recordkeeping exemptions, not a verified safety judgment.
No WARN filings

Rising disclosed medians
Disclosed medians moved from $85,493 (FY2024) to $93,030 (FY2025) (+8.8%), weighted by this employer's own LCA rows — not a company-wide raise and not role-mix adjusted.
