Colorado

2017 Scholarship Challenge:
The Alumni Association's goal is to raise $50,000 for scholarships in 2017 and you can help!

Share your CU pride and help us support the next generation of Forever Buffs!

If you’re a Colorado resident, your purchase of CU license plates includes a $50 scholarship donation. Together, if we add just 1,000 CU plates to the road in 2017, we’ll reach our scholarship goal. 

Purchasing a CU license plate in Colorado is easier than ever and you will still be helping a future CU student when you get your plates.

Getting involved, supporting future Buffs and sharing your school pride is easy with a CU license plate: Simple step-by-step process to obtain your CU license plate: Step 1: Make a scholarship donation to the CU Boulder Alumni Association of at least $50 through the CU Foundation website. Step 2: After you make your scholarship donation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take the donation confirmation email, which will include the State of Colorado certification, to the Division of Motor Vehicles and present it to a clerk. Step 3: Pay the required DMV fee ($50) for obtaining specialty plates.  Your CU license plate will be sent via the U.S. Postal Service and arrive in 5 to 7 days. Frequently asked questions

As long as you keep them registered. Please note, if you move and discontinue your registration, you will have to go through this process again and make a new donation to obtain CU license plates if you move back to Colorado.

If you would like to get your CU plates immediately, but don’t actually need to renew your license plates until a later date, the DMV will prorate the registration fee for the time remaining until your registration expires.
