About Colorado State University
As one of our nation’s top public institutions of higher learning and Colorado’s land-grant institution, Colorado
State University is committed to making things happen – from the classroom and the laboratory to
communities across the world. CSU offers among the very best professional programs in the United States in
veterinary medicine, occupational therapy, journalism, agriculture, and construction management. Under the
leadership of President Tony Frank, Colorado State University aims to continue its growth as a top-tier
destination for talented students, while also passionately pursuing its mission and heritage as the land-grant
institution for the state of Colorado. Our campus is the heart of Fort Collins, at the base of the Rocky
Mountains, and only an hour from the Denver metropolitan area. The wide-open spaces, 300 days of sunshine
each year and majestic backdrop make Fort Collins, a city with a population of about 150,000, an attractive
place to work, live, and learn.
About the Office of Admissions
Admissions is charged with leading undergraduate recruitment and outreach efforts for the entire university,
as well as making decisions on all undergraduate applications, and processing graduate applications. This
complex office of over 60 staff recruits actively around the state of Colorado, travels from coast to coast to
interact with an annual prospect pool of over 60,000 students each year, and manages over 30,000
applications per year including 4700 transfer applications. Through innovative and strategic approaches,
Admissions strives to attract an increasingly diverse and well-prepared student body in fulfillment of its land-
grant mission and heritage. Colorado State was the first public institution west of the Mississippi with
membership in the Common Application Organization, and employs a holistic, comprehensive review process
to best select new undergraduates not only in light of their preparation but also their potential to successfully
contribute to the campus community.
