Recruiting International Students to CU-Boulder

Many faculty are interested in bringing outstanding students from other countries to CU-Boulder for research or study. The University is pleased to include highly-qualified students in our graduate and undergraduate programs; indeed, we are striving to increase the number of international students on the campus.

All students must apply for admission to the University through the Office of Admissions as undergraduates, or through the appropriate department as graduate students. In addition to all the admissions documents, fees, and recommendations required of domestic students, most international students will need to provide proof of their ability to speak and understand English by presenting the results of the Test of English as a International Language (TOEFL) if their native language is not English, and document their ability to finance their studies in the United States. Current details and application forms are available from the Office of Admissions, 492-6301.  Ask for international admissions or see:   http://www.colorado.edu/prospective/international/

Although international students are eligible to compete with domestic students for some forms of financial support (e.g., research assistantships, graduate part-time instructors positions, athletic scholarships), they may not receive any federally-funded financial aid. There are very few scholarships reserved for international students attending CU-Boulder at this time and unfortunately, none for first year international students.
