Enrollment Processing Updates

Effective Fall 2020, the deadline for students to change a 16-week student-option class from letter grade to pass/fail (or vice versa) is now the tenth Friday of the semester (prorated for special sessions).

To ensure colleges, schools and programs have time to finalize Fall 2020 class schedules and set up freshman cohorts, the scheduled July 6 registration start date for new, incoming transfer and summer-to-fall students has been postponed.

The enrollment start date for incoming transfer and summer-to-fall undergraduates has been moved from May 26 to a yet-to-be-determined date in June.

New summer admits have traditionally been prohibited from taking Maymester and Augmester intensive classes. However, following a policy review, these restrictions have now been lifted.

To help you gauge the effect of lifting pass/fail restrictions for Spring 2020, the reporting team has developed or modified two reports to include columns related to grading basis and earned grades. In addition, a new report was developed to help administrative offices, departments and advisors keep track of service indicators assigned to currently enrolled students.

For Spring 2020, the provost recently announced that CU Boulder will lift restrictions on pass/fail credits for all majors and degrees (other than law) and allow those students to declare a pass/fail option for most classes.

The provost recently approved an extension of the last day to drop a class (with a W) deadline for students, through the last day of classes—April 30 for Spring 2020 full-semester classes, prorated for special session classes.

On Wednesday, March 4, students will receive a registration e-memo specifying their enrollment start date and time. In each block, enrollment appointments are assigned every 15 minutes between 7:30 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. on weekdays (M–F) and 11 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 5.

In general, enrollment appointments are based on total cumulative hours and occur between March 4 and 6, 2020.

When we purged the waitlists for Spring 2020 classes on Monday morning, we produced reports showing who was on each class waitlist.
