Colorado Free Application Days start today and run through Thursday, October 22. During this time, many public colleges and universities in Colorado, as well as several private institutions, are waiving application fees for Colorado residents.

Application fees are a common barrier to higher education. This annual campaign, now in its ninth year, helps remove that barrier and opens the door to the education and training Coloradans need in our rapidly changing economy.
