General CU information is available on the prospective students website. There are tabs for freshmen, transfer, and international students. You may also sign up for campus visits through this website.

Curriculum

Please consult the curriculum section of this website for information about program requirements and other frequently asked questions.

The link at the bottom of that web page will take you to the Arts and Sciences core curriculum requirements.

You will need to satisfy those A&S requirements before you graduate; some may be taken at community colleges. Transfer information on the Arts and Sciences website may be helpful.

Most courses are offered during the day, but evening and online options are available through Continuing Education:

• online

• evening

It is possible to take courses through the ACCESS program administered by Continuing Education at either the undergraduate or graduate level even if you are not formally admitted to CU. Please choose courses in this program carefully to ensure they apply to your degree requirements.

Declaring an ENVS Major

Major declaration meetings are held every week or two throughout each semester. Check the posted list outside the ENVS office in Benson 246 or on the Academic Advising web site.

You must attend a major declaration meeting to declare the ENVS major.

Internships

Environmental studies offers Internships for credit.

Career Services coordinates internships for pay.

Advising

Decisions about how high school transcripts are evaluated or how courses transfer are made by the admissions office rather than individual academic departments. The ENVS undergraduate advisor deals only with the academic progress of current environmental studies majors.

Your first contact with the academic advisor will be at orientation. There is no need to make an appointment with an advisor before orientation.

To make an appointment, log in to the Academic Advising web site. You will need your ID and PIN to log on.

Questions?

For general questions, please contact the ENVS office. A staff member is usually able to answer questions in person or over the telephone. If you are planning a trip to campus, contact the ENVS office in advance to arrange an office visit and/or the opportunity to sit in on a class.

The information on this page is available as a Prospective Student Handout (PDF) to print and bring with you.
