Open registration for Fall 2024 begins May 6. After you have completed all the pieces in the admissions checklist, you may meet with your advisor either virtually or in person.

You are welcome to bring guests to help move you into the residence hall. There is a welcome session and a student supporter session on Wednesday, August 14 in the afternoon. After that, Orientation is for students only.

This is a very rare occurrence; students are required to attend Orientation in order to take classes at CMC.

If you believe you have an extenuating circumstance, please contact the Director of Student Life via email at balarson@coloradomtn.edu. Decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis.

Air: You can fly into Denver (DEN) and rent a car or take a shuttle.

Shuttle: You can take the Bustang to Frisco, and then transfer to the Summit Stage which will bring you into Leadville.

Car: Leadville is about 2 hours from the Denver airport. Take I-70 to the Copper Mountain exit, and Highway 91 will take you directly to Leadville.
