Enrollment Verifications

Student Portal 

Current students can log into their myUCCSPortal for different enrollment verification options. The Enrollment Verification link is available under the “Records and Registration” tab in the portal. You can view and print the following:

• Enrollment history
• Loan deferments that have been sent to lenders
• Enrollment verifications  

The items above are not available until the first day of each semester. If a verification is needed prior to the start of the semester, an enrollment verification must be requested through the Office of the Registrar (see below). 

Enrollment Verification Form

Students that require additional information on their enrollment verification can complete the Enrollment Verification Form found under the Student Forms tab on the Office of the Registrar webpage.

These documents are prepared using official UCCS letterhead and include student name, program of study, date of attendance, semester dates, status (part-time or full-time), anticipated graduation semester or degree conferred (if applicable). These verifications can list specific semesters (current or past) or display all semesters attended. If additional information is required, this can be indicated in the 'comments' box. The Office of the Registrar will issue the verification to the party identified on the form.

Turnaround time for standard student enrollment verifications is 24-48 hours.

If you require an urgent enrollment verification from our office, complete the 'Rushed Enrollment Verification' option via our online storefront. 

For questions, please contact registrar@uccs.edu or 719-255-3361.

Important: 

Unregistered new students needing proof of admission should contact the Office of Admissions for an acceptance letter. 

Students must be registered (not waitlisted) for courses before the Office of the Registrar can process an enrollment verification request for that semester.

Waitlisted courses will not apply to a student’s enrollment status. Only courses that a student is fully registered for will be reflected in enrollment.

Current students needing to verify full-time status should check their student schedule in their myUCCSPortal to confirm their enrollment status prior to requesting an enrollment verification.

Students that have enrollment verification forms from outside parties needing to be filled out can email them to registrar@uccs.edu, fax to 719-255-3116, or submit to Main Hall 108. Please ensure that the student portion is filled out prior to submission.

General Records Requests

All students needing more than an official proof of enrollment should contact the Office of the Registrar directly. All student record requests require a Record Release Form signed by the student indicating which records to be released. Official transcripts will not be sent. If official transcripts are needed, please see our Transcripts page 

If you are an employer, sponsor, or other third-party requesting to verify a past or current student's enrollment at UCCS, the please utilize the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC).  Additional information on third-party requests can be found below.  Please note that FERPA regulations apply when student information is requested.

National Student Clearinghouse

UCCS uses the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) to act as its agent for third-party enrollment and degree verification. The NSC can verify degrees, enrollment status, and dates of attendance for those students who have not placed privacy restrictions on their academic record.

Submissions must include the student's current and/or former names, Social Security Number or student ID, date of birth, and University of Colorado campus attended. If you indicate the wrong campus, your request cannot be processed.

UCCS will not verify personal information for a student (e.g., date of birth, address, Social Security Number, citizenship).

Note: We are unable to verify degrees for upcoming or recent graduates before degrees post to transcripts (see the Transcript & Diploma Calendar on our transcripts page). Requests submitted prior to the degree conferral date will only receive verification for dates of attendance, and a new request will be required to verify a student's degree conferral.

General Records Requests

All record requests require a release signed by the student indicating which education records can be released to the third-party. Official transcripts will not be sent. If official transcripts are needed, please see the section below. You can find a standard release form here: Record Release Form

Third Party Transcript Requests

A release form signed by the student must be sent to the Office of the Registrar with a $15 check or money order. A valid mailing address must be provided to receive the transcript via standard USPS ground shipping.

To acquire official electronic transcripts, the student must submit an order online to be sent directly to the third-party. All online requests must be submitted by the student through the UCCS online transcript ordering service. 

Federal Investigators

If you are a federal investigator conducting a background check on a current or former student, you may request an unofficial transcript through the Office of the Registrar. If additional student records are required (e.g. disciplinary records, employment records, etc.), you must contact that specific department directly.

In order to process the request, investigators must provide the following:

• Visibly shown federal badge
• An official federal student release
• Business card 

The Office of the Registrar may receive the above items and send out unofficial transcripts the following ways only:

• DoD Safe  
  • Send a DoD Safe pick-up link containing the above documents to registrar@uccs.edu
  • Send a ​​​​​​DoD Safe drop off link to registrar@uccs.edu for the unofficial transcript to be delivered to
  • The Office of the Registrar will send two emails:
    • One will be the DoD drop-off of the unofficial transcript
    • Second will include the password to access the secure drop-off as well as a breakdown of semester dates, full-time status requirements, contact information of the individual providing the records, etc. 

• Standard USPS mail
  • Please indicate the address you want the transcript mailed to when sending your request
  • Investigators may fax required documents and signed releases to 719-255-3116 and indicate an address to have unofficial transcripts sent to

• In person
  • Available during office hours Monday-Friday 8:30am-4pm in Main Hall 108
  • Please send the student release via fax to 719-255-3116 before arriving. The Office of the Registrar cannot guarantee same day processing and will call you directly to inform you when the transcript is ready for pick up. 

**Please note: You may fax your required documents and signed release to 719-255-3116 with your preferred method of receiving the records, but the Office of the Registrar cannot fax transcripts back to you. We can only send transcripts back via the above-mentioned ways. 

Student Data Requests

If you are an outside agency or government entity looking to request student population information or data, see the 'CU-SIS Data Request Form' found at the bottom of our Faculty/Staff page. Due to the large volume of requests, please allow at least 10 business days to receive your report.
