Admissions Process

Incoming freshmen or those transferring from other colleges or schools may apply to the undergraduate program through the University of Colorado Office of Admissions.

General Admissions Information

Prospective freshman students
Prospective freshman students are encouraged to complete strong academic programs in high school.

  • A minimum of four academic units should be completed each year with special emphasis given to writing, mathematics, and science skills.
  • For a detailed explanation of the high school preparation desired, see the Minimum Academic Preparation Standards.

Transfer students

  • Transfer students are expected to demonstrate proficiency in writing and mathematics.
  • Prospective transfer students should complete courses equivalent to those taken by University of Colorado business freshmen and sophomores.
  • A transfer credit evaluation will be performed AFTER a student has been accepted to the University of Colorado and has confirmed admission.
  • In order to estimate which credits will transfer:
    • Consult your school's course catalog. Many courses have very similar titles and many business programs have very similar introductory courses.  
    • Compare course descriptions from your institution with the courses required at the Leeds School.

Diversity

In addition to GPA requirements, hours taken, and non-business course requirements completed, the school considers other factors that contribute to diversity in the student body.
