Higher Education Admission Requirements

Colorado has recently established Higher Education Admissions Requirements for students who plan to attend any of Colorado's public, four-year colleges or universities. The requirements go into effect in two phases: Phase 1 for students graduating in 2008 and 2009, and Phase 2 for students graduating in 2010 and beyond.

Enacted in 2005, HB 1057 requires districts to provide parents with a list of courses the district has available that satisfy the CCHE’s Higher Education Admission Guidelines. Douglas County provides a number of courses that meet those criteria.
