CU Guest Access

CU Guest Access is a read-only, online option for guests to view specific aspects of your education record. You can select components of your record that the guest can view, and you can modify or revoke access at any time. Guests can’t make any changes to your record or complete any transactions on your behalf.

CU Guest Access does not authorize a guest to contact the university to request or discuss your student education record. Student record information can only be accessed by a parent or third party if the student has filed a Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) Consent to Release.
