HELPFUL TIPS

  1. There is one Pikes Peak State admission application for all students. International students and selective admission programs have separate requirements. Contact the corresponding department for questions. 

  2. Create your own account to submit your application. Do not submit an application under another person's application account. If you are helping another person apply, please be sure to create an application account for the applicant. 

  3. If using another person's computer to complete the admission application, please check that "Auto-Fill" is turned off to ensure you input your correct information. 

  4. Select the earliest semester you would like to attend. If you decide later that you would like to attend an earlier semester, you must complete a new application. 

  5. If you have attended classes or applied within the past calendar year, you are an active student and do not need to reapply. 

    Note: This does not apply to current Pikes Peak students applying for selective admission programs (example: RN to BSN Program). If you are applying to a selective program, you must reapply. 

    Contact us at admissions@pikespeak.edu or 719-502-2000 to verify your status.
