Denver Admissions
The graduate professional programs of the College of Architecture and Planning (CAP) are located on the Denver campus. This campus is rapidly emerging as a national model in urban education. Besides the convenient access to, and close ties with, many of the top design and planning firms and agencies in the nation, these prestigious programs are unique in Colorado and the west.
As a CAP student, you will enroll in one of four distinct degree programs and learn from accomplished professors who have real world expertise in addition to their strong academic backgrounds. The result is a relevant, hands-on curriculum, which blends both theoretical and practical knowledge.
Application Process
In the Application Process section, you will find information on the entire application process, along with admission requirements, important dates to remember, and the tools you’ll need to complete your application.

Campus Visit
While a campus visit and admissions interviews are not required for admission, it is strongly recommended that you plan a visit before making your decision. Your college education will likely be the second biggest investment you will ever make. Such a monumental decision should be made with the insight that can only be gained by seeing the campus and its surroundings firsthand.
