Alternate Entry Options
赌博正规的十大网站的独特之处在于，一年级学生在申请时可以考虑各种入学选择. A traditional fall entry is the default consideration for most students under review by the Admission Committee, however, some students may be considered candidates for alternate entry options - especially if an interest has been indicated via an application or form.
学生可以考虑以下入学选择:
Gap Year
In a typical year, approximately 50-60 admitted students elect to delay the start of their Colorado College education by designing and pursuing a year-long adventure of their own making, 或者考虑现有的选择. 尽管学生们有很多个人原因来追求间隔经历, 每个人都倾向于寻求体验式学习，而这在教室的范围内是找不到的.
被我们提前录取的学生, Early Action, 或常规行动项目可以提交间隔年申请，以延迟一年入学. 我们将批准以国家服务或宗教传教为目的的更长的间隔期. 被冬季开始课程录取的学生没有资格申请间隔年.
Visit our Gap Year 参考资料页获取更多信息, 包括请求和批准信息, and recommended programs.
Winter Start (Gap Semester)
几乎每个入学周期, approximately 30 students admitted to our Winter Start program will embark on an independent semester-long gap experience in the fall semester before joining their classmates in January to enroll in their first block on campus.
Students admitted to our Winter Start program will participate in the Winter Start Orientation (WSO) and will also engage in our First Year Program — designed to prepare students for the rigors of the Block Plan.

Recruitment Philosophy
Colorado College is committed to academic excellence and has established shared recruitment practices to strengthen athletic programs. The Office of Admission partners with the Athletic Department to ensure that students on all intercollegiate teams are representative of our student body and are admitted with the expectation of their full participation in the life of the college. 学生运动员应该意识到，我们已经承诺:
- 所有录取决定仅由招生办公室以书面形式提交. 由非录取人员传达的关于录取决定状态的任何通知, including verbal commitments, 应该被视为初步的, unofficial, and subject to change.
- No admission decision, including an Early Decision, will be made until the candidate's application is complete and all necessary supporting documentation has been received (including application, supplement, transcripts, 标准化考试成绩及推荐信).
- 根据NCAA的政策，在三级项目中没有体育奖学金. Merit-based scholarship offers and need-based aid packages are made only by the Office of Financial Aid after the student has been admitted. 因此，我们建议家庭使用我们的 Net Price Calculator 在入学前预估出勤费用.
Coach's Role
而录取决定完全由录取委员会做出, 考虑教练对每个候选人的运动能力和潜在贡献的评估. 其他大学的教练可能会对学生运动员的能力进行不同的评估. 职位考虑也可能导致对申请人对团队价值的不同评估.
重要的是要记住，这是一个带有运动成分的大学录取过程, 这不是一个体育招生过程，不是有机会上大学的. Our coaches actively identify and recruit student-athletes and act as advocates for them; but no coach at the college has the authority to offer, promise, 或者保证任何被招募的学生运动员在即将到来的班级中占有一席之地.
我们鼓励有兴趣的学生运动员在各自的网站上填写招募表格 athletic team webpage 以便开始预审过程.
