How to Apply
Students who want to apply for registration in a career or technical program at Technical College of the Rockies must
complete the following steps. There are 2 stages to the Admissions Process.
Stage 1: Application Process
1. Click Here to fill out and submit an application. Please make sure to SAVE YOUR STUDENT ID & PIN# so that you can continue to access your profile to complete the Application Process requirements. The Student ID and PIN# will be sent to you via email after you submit the application.
2. Check your email for instructions on completing your checklist items for the program you are applying for. These include, but are not limited to:
- A copy of your photo ID, Drivers License, or official High School ID
- Transcripts (Sent to us directly from the school you attended)
- Tuition and Fee Acknowledgement Form
It is highly recommended that you complete a FAFSA form early in this process if you are using financial aid, so it is processed with plenty of time before school begins.
If you would like to track your progress in completing the admissions checklist , you may log in to your account by going to https://tcrsonis.jenzabarcloud.com/appsect.cfm and entering the Student ID and PIN#. If there are items you have submitted to us, but they are not checked off, please email admissions@tcr.edu to let us know.
3. After you have completed your checklist items, you will move on to the Enrollment Process. This process will begin after you receive an email notifying you of your completion of stage 1. This email will contain additional instructions for stage 2.
*Note: CPR students DO NOT need to provide a transcript.
Stage 2: Enrollment Process

2. Once you are registered and have created a password, open the app and log in.
3. Click on Programs, and select the program you have applied for.
4. Complete the requirements found in your program and submit them.
5. Once you finish the program requirements, complete and submit the Completed Program Requirements form (AEMT, EMT and Medical Assistant students can submit this form before completing their immunizations**).

**Note: AEMT, EMT and Medical Assistant students will be enrolled before all of their immunization requirements are completed. The immunization proofs and additional requirements for those programs will be due by the first week of class or you will be dropped from the course. Please be aware that AEMT, EMT and Medical Assistant students must also go through an interview process with their program coordinators to be fully accepted into the program.
