Eligibility & Limitations
To enroll in ACCESS courses with CU Boulder, students must be in good academic standing
and on track to be admitted to an EPP based on admissions guidelines at CMU.
Students are limited to taking 9 total credits (generally 3 courses) through the ACCESS
Program prior to admission to the CU Boulder portion of an EPP. Only two courses may be
taken through the ACCESS Program in one semester.
Cost
ACCESS tuition is determined by residency, and students are responsible for
all applicable tuition and fees, which can be found at https://ce.colorado.edu/programs/access/tuition-fees. Students should work with their Partnership Program Director to fill out a Consortium
Agreement to ensure that financial aid information is shared between your host campus and CU
Boulder. This Consortium Agreement ensures your credits from both institutions will count towards your full-time enrollment that semester. Students may use their CMU financial aid to apply to a balance due at CU Boulder. Nondegree students in the ACCESS Program are encouraged to fill out the online fee
waiver form to request to get all applicable student fees waived at https://ce.colorado.edu/student-information/forms#fees_waiver_form-812.
Important Dates
Continuing Education dates for adding and dropping courses may be different from that of main
campus and can be found at https://ce.colorado.edu/programs/access/dates-deadlines.
Questions & Changes
It is the student’s responsibility to be in communication with their Academic Advisor on their campus regarding any changes in their class schedule. Questions can be directed to
[email protected].
