Academic Advising

Advising is more than offering information about academic courses and registration; it also involves encouraging you to answer important questions about the nature and direction of your education. Advisors are here to get to know you, help you explore and understand your options, and personalize your overall academic experience.

Academic Enrichment

At CU Boulder students can conduct their own research through the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) and receive funding to attend academic conferences via the Professional and Academic Conference Endowment (PACE). They can gain valuable experience through multiple co-curricular opportunities or via participation in departmental or campus-wide honors programs. And they can apply for some of the most prestigious competitive scholarships through our Top Scholarships program.
