I too did a lot of intramural ball in college. There I was trained by a D1 men's official and the NBA's George Toliver. It lead to more work for George's AAU program and some mentoring. A couple of years later I was helping with the instruction and training (I had moved quickly up the locl HS ladder) and now I am happy to say one of my trainees is working varsity ball 2 years out of school.
Of course, it truly depends on the school you attend. Some places are happy just to have bodies and don't do any training. Others are run by top notch people who work hard at making their officials better.
Best of luck to you!

OC: Toliver's camp is excellent. I attended 4 or 5 years ago and also got the opportunity to do one of his AAU games. Think his team was called the "hotshots"?
