Senior Auditors program canceled for spring semester

Campus leadership has made the difficult decision to cancel the Senior Auditors program for spring 2022, due to semester now beginning remotely. 

The Alumni Association believes this decision is in the best interest of tuition-paying students and the faculty that teach them. This information has been shared with the small group of auditors that had already pre-registered to take part in the program in hopes there will be minimal impact on faculty and staff as classes begin.

If you receive questions about the Senior Auditors program, please forward them to seniorauditors@colorado.edu or contact the Alumni Association at 303-492-8484.
