Step Three: After Application

Within two to three weeks of CU-Boulder's receipt of your application you should receive:

1. Your CU-Boulder Student Identification Number (SID)
2. Your PIN to access the online application status page

Now that you have filled out an application, review the application checklist to make sure you have also submitted and/or requested all the required information and credentials. Missing information or credentials delay application processing and may affect your chances for admission.

AttentionApplications and credentials submitted for admission become the property of the University of Colorado at Boulder. Keep a copy of your application for your personal records.

We do not accept credentials or information by fax as official documentation. Do not submit samples or photographs of design or artwork. A portfolio is not used for admission purposes and cannot be returned to you.

Official transcripts must be sent directly to the Office of Admissions from the issuing institution(s).

Missing information or credentials delay application processing and may affect your chances for admission. Incomplete applications cannot be reviewed until the necessary items are received. Most items sent by mail typically require 10 days to two weeks to reach our office, as well as additional time to be processed.

 

Keeping Your Mailing Address Current
We send mailings to you at the address you put on your application regarding admission, registration, and orientation, as well as other information. If your address changes after you’ve submitted your application, notify the Office of Admissions immediately at 303-492-2451.

Keeping Your E-mail Address Current
List a valid and active e-mail address on your application. Keep your e-mail updated at all times. If your e-mail address changes or is no longer valid, notify the Office of Admissions by e-mail. Include your full legal name and birth date in your e-mail.
