Tuition Due Dates
Bills become available in Buff Portal (CUBill&Pay for authorized payers) by the second Thursday of each month after you register for classes. Payment is due on the 5th of the following month. Postmarks and post-dated checks are not honored. Dates may be subject to change without notice.
(NOTE: The February 2021 payment due date has moved from February 5 to February 12.)
See the Bursar’s Office website for important dates.
Add, Drop, and Withdrawal Info
Enrolled students must add or drop courses by the dates and deadlines listed in their program’s academic calendar. You may add, drop, or withdraw via Buff Portal or by email at ceregistration@colorado.edu.
If you fail to drop by the deadline you may receive a grade of F and you may be liable for any tuition and fees. You may withdraw from a credit course after the published drop deadline. Withdrawals will result in a W on your academic record.
Administrative Drop Policy
If you do not attend your courses regularly during the first week through the last day to drop, you may be administratively dropped. Nonattendance does not constitute withdrawal. If you have questions, check with your instructor or contact us.
Grade Replacement Policy
You may be eligible for grade replacement if you are a degree-seeking undergraduate or graduate student at CU Boulder who earned a C- or lower (undergrads), or a C+ or lower (grad students) in your most recent prior attempt of a course (W grades don’t count). Law and nondegree students are not eligible for grade replacement. Learn more about CU Boulder’s grade replacement policy.
To request grade replacement, fill out a grade replacement form by the deadline listed on the academic calendar.
If you have questions about the policy, contact the CE Student Services at ceadvise@colorado.edu or schedule an appointment.
