Identifying Confirmed Students Who Aren't Attending

Every year, our office receives questions about how we're identifying confirmed students who've decided not to come to Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder. Here's a summary of our current methods:

  • Ongoing: Staff are encouraged to submit a new student cancellation intent form if an incoming student tells them they're not coming to CU. The student receives an email advising them to complete the term change request form on their application status page or email admissions@colorado.edu.
  • Mid-summer: The New Student & Family Programs Office (NSFP) emails students who were batch preregistered to tell them they will be billed (sent to pre-Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØand Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØemail addresses). Students not planning to attend are advised as above.
  • Early August: NSFP emails students who haven't done any of the following (sent to pre-Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØand Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØemail addresses): checked their Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder email, completed the online experience, signed a housing contract, completed preregistration, or done self-service registration. Students not planning to attend are advised as above.
  • Mid-August: Students who still haven't taken action are dropped from their classes.
  • Mid-September: Students who aren't enrolled are discontinued.

Our office continues to work with Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØdepartments on other methods to drop/discontinue students who are not planning to attend. If you have questions, please email registrar@colorado.edu.
