+ A Note About College Application Week
College in Colorado, a state agency, encouraged Colorado
residents to apply to state colleges from Nov. 1 to Nov. 8 with the
possibility of getting the application fee waived. Although we support
College Application Week as a way to promote higher education, CSU
waives application fees throughout the year only for those with
low-income or other hardship situations as noted in our application.
This helps us fulfill our mission of providing widespread access to an
exceptional education.
