科罗拉多州立大学试点保录取：州内高中生 GPA 3.0 以上申请 2027 年秋季保证入学
科罗拉多州立大学 10 月 26 日宣布推出试点录取项目：申请 2027 年秋季入学的科罗拉多州高中生，平均绩点（GPA）达到 3.0 或以上即可保证入学；该项目亦面向 2027 年夏季入学申请人，试点期仅限 2027 年夏季与秋季，之后大学将评估是否长期实施。
校方称，该试点延续了科罗拉多州与丹佛公立学区合作推出的保录取项目的势头，进一步确立科罗拉多州立大学作为该州注重入学机会的大学的定位：为符合条件的州内学生提供简单、透明的入学通道。科罗拉多州学生申请该校一向免费。校方表示，该项目亦符合大学作为赠地大学的使命，强化其长期以来对教育机会、社会流动以及服务全州各地居民的承诺。
负责招生与入学事务的副校长凯文·麦克伦南说："科罗拉多州学生是科罗拉多州立大学使命的核心，他们的成功对我们学校与我们州的未来至关重要。新的保录取项目体现了科罗拉多州立大学坚定致力于扩大科罗拉多州居民教育机会、提供透明高等教育通道的承诺。我们希望科罗拉多州学生与家庭知道，科罗拉多州立大学重视他们的志向、欢迎他们的才华，并致力于帮助他们实现目标。通过投资科罗拉多州学生，科罗拉多州立大学就是在投资科罗拉多州未来几代人的劳动力、社区与经济活力。"
教务长兼执行副校长莉丝·扬布莱德说，降低高等教育门槛有助于推进大学赠地使命与学生成功这一首要任务："这一保证让科罗拉多州学生与家庭更有信心，相信科罗拉多州立大学的教育触手可及，在这里他们可以与优秀教师一起学习、探索兴趣，并为未来做好准备。打开大门只是开始，我们同样致力于帮助学生找到归属感、取得学业成功，并培养实现目标所需的技能与使命感。"
校方列出的预期效果包括：降低科罗拉多州学生的入学门槛与不确定性；加强对教育机会的承诺；增加农村与服务不足社区的入学机会；扩大第一代大学生入学；改善全州地域代表性；支持全州学位完成目标。校方还称，研究表明，当申请要求与录取预期易于理解时，学生更可能入学；有保障的通道消除了不确定性，让达到既定标准的学生确信自己在科罗拉多州立大学有一席之地。具体资格要求见校方招生网页。
Colorado State University Pilots Guaranteed Admission for In-State Students With a 3.0 GPA or Higher for Fall 2027
Colorado State University has launched a pilot admission program in which Colorado high school students who apply for Fall 2027 are guaranteed admission with a grade point average of 3.0 or higher, the university announced on October 26. The program is also open to applicants for Summer 2027. The initiative is limited to Summer and Fall 2027, and then the university will assess the program for possible long-term implementation.
The pilot builds on the momentum created by Colorado's recently launched guaranteed admission program with the Denver Public School District, the university said, further establishing CSU as Colorado's premier access-focused institution by offering a simple, transparent admission pathway for qualified Colorado students. Applying to CSU is always free for Colorado students, the university noted. CSU officials say the pilot aligns with CSU's land-grant mission, reinforcing its longstanding commitment to educational access, social mobility and serving residents across all regions of the state.
"Colorado students are central to CSU's mission, and their success is essential to the future of our institution and our state," said Kevin MacLennan, vice president for enrollment and access. "The new guaranteed admission program reflects CSU's strong commitment to expanding educational opportunity for Colorado residents and providing a transparent pathway to higher education. We want Colorado students and families to know that CSU values their aspirations, welcomes their talents and is dedicated to helping them achieve their goals. By investing in Colorado students, CSU is investing in the workforce, communities and economic vitality of Colorado for generations to come."
Provost and Executive Vice President Lise Youngblade said reducing barriers to higher education advances CSU's land-grant mission and its top priority of student success. "This guarantee gives Colorado students and families greater confidence that a CSU education is within reach, where students can learn alongside outstanding faculty, explore their interests and prepare for their futures," Youngblade said. "Opening the door is just the beginning. We are equally committed to helping students find a sense of belonging, succeed academically and develop the skills and sense of purpose to pursue their goals."
The university lists the expected outcomes as: reducing barriers and uncertainty for Colorado students; strengthening CSU's commitment to educational opportunity; increasing access for rural and underserved communities; expanding enrollment among first-generation students; improving geographic representation across Colorado; and supporting statewide degree attainment goals. Research indicates that students are more likely to enroll when application requirements and admission expectations are easy to understand, the university said, and a guaranteed pathway removes ambiguity and provides students with confidence that they have a place at CSU if they meet established benchmarks. Specific eligibility requirements are available on the university's admissions website.
