Military Student Day

The CU-Boulder Military Student Day provides you the opportunity to experience a day in the life of a CU-Boulder student with a special emphasis on services and programs available to the military community. You will tour the campus, attend information sessions, meet campus admissions representatives and veteran/ active duty students, and have the opportunity to attend a transfer credit evaluation session**.

This day is designed to allow you to ask questions of current CU-Boulder staff and student veterans about the admissions process and what it is like to be a Buff. If you would like a transfer credit evaluation on the day of the program, you must e-mail your military and college transcript to TChelp@colorado.edu no later than March 5th. Transcripts received after March 5th or on the day of the event will receive an evaluation by March 13, 2013.

Date: March 8, 2013

Time: 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Cost: There is no cost to attend this program. Lunch and on-campus parking are provided.
