Ready to Enroll at
Front Range
Community College?

Here’s our enrollment checklist to help you get started.

Step 1: Complete an Application

Apply online or download a paper application. You (and a parent/legal guardian, if you are under age 23) will be asked a series of questions to determine your residency status for tuition purposes. If you are at least 17 years old, you will be admitted automatically. Admission, however, does not guarantee your acceptance into any specific program.

Step 2: Login to your eWOLF Account

eWOLF is where you'll find everything you need to get started at FRCC - access financial aid information and forms, register for classes, see registration status, activate student e-mail and more.

Step 3: Get Tuition Assistance

Apply for the College Opportunity Fund (COF). All students who are classified as Colorado residents for tuition purposes must complete a stipend application to receive their portion of state-paid tuition.  Learn more about the COF.  

Step 4: Apply for Financial Aid

Fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to apply for federal financial aid in the form of grants, work-study, and low-interest loans. Apply early, as the application process can take six to eight weeks. Learn more about financial aid.

Step 5: Take Assessment Test

Take an assessment at your campus for appropriate course placement (with appropriate documentation, you may qualify for an exemption). The assessment test is not timed, but takes approximately two hours and assesses your reading comprehension, English language skills, and math skills. 

Step 6: Meet with Advising

All new students first attend a group advising session at their campus. See session dates and times for Boulder, Larimer and Westminster campuses. Second, you will meet with an advisor to discuss your academic plans.  

Step 7: Register for Classes

Register for classes as early as possible. You can download step-by-step instructions to guide you through the process.  

Step 8: Pay Tuition

Pay tuition and fees in full by the payment deadline. Or, you may arrange to pay your tuition through a monthly payment plan (FACTS). FRCC does not send bills. Check your student account for your balance due.

Step 9: Buy Books

Buy your books and all you need to get prepared and organized at one of the FRCC campus bookstores.  

Step  10: Attend New Student Orientation

At new student orientation you’ll learn more about FRCC, the resources available, and how you can make the most of your college experience. 

Step 11: Get FRCC ID Card

The Wolf Card is the official ID card for FRCC. It gives you access to the library, computer labs, and other services on campus. Bring a valid photo ID, your current class schedule and $5 to your campus Student Life Office to get your Wolf Card.
