ÌðÐÄÊÓƵapp to Waive Application Fees on Colorado Free Application Day

The University of Northern Colorado is waiving application fees for undergraduate applicants submitted by Colorado residents on Tuesday, Oct. 13, as part of the third annual .

Colorado Free Application Day encourages high-school seniors to successfully apply to a higher-education program and file their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). All 32 public universities and several private colleges in Colorado are taking part in this year’s Free App Day.

Colorado Free Application Day caps off Colorado Applies Month, a five-week campaign that guides 11th- and 12-grade students and adult job seekers along the application process.

The statewide push is designed to increase Colorado’s stagnant college-going and FAFSA completion rates. Despite being one of the most educated states in the country, Colorado sends just 56% of high school graduates to a college, university or certificate program and just 50% of students submit a FAFSA application — a key indicator of students’ likelihood to continue their education., according to the Colorado Department of Higher Education.

Interested Colorado students must submit a completed admissions application between 12:01 a.m. and 11:59 a.m. on Oct. 13 only. Please read ÌðÐÄÊÓƵapp’s fee waiver process below:
