Spring applicants
Spring applications are processed on a rolling basis. We begin notifying applicants about admission decisions in October. Decisions are made approximately four to six weeks after an application is complete. We give full consideration to applications that are complete (including the application fee and all required credentials) by the October 1 deadline.
Summer and fall applicants
Applications for the summer 2009 and fall 2009 terms will be processed as either Early Action applications or as Regular Decision applications.
Early Action
Applicants who submit the online application and postmark all supporting documents by the December 15 deadline are considered Early Action applicants. Early Action applicants will be reviewed first and will be notified on or before February 15 of their initial decision. Early action candidates may be offered admission, denied admission, or deferred to the Regular Decision process for further consideration. Applicants who are deferred to the Regular Decision applicant pool should submit mid-year senior grades and any new test scores, and will be notified of a final admission decision on or before April 1. Applicants denied admission through Early Action may not submit additional information and may not reapply under the Regular Decision process.
Early Action applicants are not required to enroll at the University of Colorado at Boulder, but must, if they choose to attend, confirm their intent to enroll by May 1.
Regular Decision
Freshman summer and fall applicants who do not complete their applications by the December 15 early action deadline must submit the online application and postmark all supporting documents by the February 15 deadline. Regular decision applicants will be notified of their candidacy by April 1 and must, if they choose to attend, confirm their intent to enroll by May 1.
