Confirm your enrollmentBy the confirmation deadline

If you want to attend CU-Boulder, your first step is to confirm your intent to enroll. Go to the ‘Confirm’ tab in your MyCUBoulder account and read the confirmation instructions carefully. Pay attention to the confirmation deadline and the deposit amount. Your deposit is not refundable if you confirm your intent to enroll and later decide not to register and attend classes.

When you confirm, you will be asked to pay a non-re-fundable $200 confirmation deposit. All admitted inter-national students are required to pay this deposit. You must pay with an electronic check or by credit card (there is a 2.75% service fee assessed with credit card payments). The electronic check option will only work if the funds are drawn from a U.S. bank account.

It will take at least one business day for your confirma-tion to be processed and added to your MyCUBoulder account. If you cannot pay by credit card or electronic check, you need to email Diane Gerwig at Diane.Gerwig@colorado.edu, who will work with you to receive payment and confirm your enrollment.

Deferring your admission. You may defer your admission for up to one year by submitting a Request Deferral form on the ‘Con-firm’ tab in your MyCUBoulder account. You must submit your request before the first day of classes for the term to which you were originally admitted. If you decide to defer your admission after you have confirmed your intent to enroll, you must email apply@colorado.edu to request the deferral.

Declining your admission. If you will not be attending CU-Boul-der, go to the ‘Confirm’ tab in your MyCUBoulder account, click the ‘Confirm Online Now’ button, then the ‘Accept/Decline Your Admission’ link and follow the cancellation instructions.
