Current CSU-Pueblo students interested in athletics

Even though you are currently enrolled at CSU-Pueblo, the fact that you participated in athletics at another institution can hinder your eligibility to play athletics at CSU-Pueblo.

IMPORTANT: Though you've already completed the transfer process, you are not eligible to participate in athletics at CSU-Pueblo unless you receive a release from your previous head coach!  Without a release, a head coach from CSU-Pueblo or any other NCAA institution is not allowed to speak to you about joining their team.  If a coach does this without a release from your current head coach, HE/SHE HAS COMMITTED AN NCAA VIOLATION!

To get a release, speak to your previous head coach and tell him/her of your intention to play intercollegiate athletics at CSU-Pueblo.  Since you are currently not enrolled at your previous institution, you will likely be granted a release.  However, your previous head coach IS NOT REQUIRED to grant your release and can cite any reason for not doing so. 

Once you obtain a release, ask the compliance director at your previous institution to contact CSU-Pueblo Compliance Director, Jackie Wallgren, at (719) 549-2021.  Once the release is received by CSU-Pueblo, CSU-Pueblo coaches are allowed to speak to you about transferring to CSU-Pueblo.

Even with a release, note that situations that could make you ineligible include having a low GPA or taking less than 12 credit hours, just to name a few.  You are encouraged to contact CSU-Pueblo Director of Compliance, Jackie Wallgren, at (719) 549-2021 or at jackie.wallgren@csupueblo.edu to check your eligibility. 

I am ready to contact a coach!
