Welcome to the College of Architecture and Planning at the University of Colorado at Boulder!

IMPORTANT MESSAGE:
Computer Required of Incoming Students

The College of Architecture and Planning now requires that all incoming undergraduate students have and use their own computers and software applications in their studies. Information Technology Services (ITS) on the Boulder campus has suggested hardware and software configurations for both desktop and notebook computers on their website at www.colorado.edu/its/recommendations.

Neither the Boulder campus nor the College of Architecture and Planning endorses or requires students to buy a computer from a particular manufacturer. The configurations suggested by ITS establish basic performance requirements that can be found in many different computers. Specialized software requirements for different classes in the ENVD program appear on the syllabi for those classes, and that software is generally available through the bookstore at discounted rates.

As an incoming student, you are about to embark on an exciting new phase in your life. The Orientation and Registration Program is designed to help get you on your way by familiarizing you with the Boulder campus and enabling you to register for classes. We hope you complete your registration and orientation feeling confident and excited about joining the college and starting school in August.

During May you will:

  • Confirm your orientation attendance
  • Make travel plans and (guest) housing accommodations
  • Request pre-registration for WRTG 1150
  • Review individual courses and recommended classes

During June/July you will:

  • Finalize your fall course preferences
  • Register for your preferred courses
  • Confer, as needed, with college advisors by phone or e-mail

During August you will attend orientation and:

  • Learn about college, major, and general degree requirements
  • Meet other students
  • Attend meetings about campus life
  • Get to know your new home—both campus and college
