Arriving in the US<br />
Let Us Know You’re Coming<br />
We want your arrival in Colorado, and your<br />
transition to <strong>INTO</strong> CSU and the CSU campus<br />
to be as comfortable as possible. We can<br />
arrange for transportation to meet you at<br />
Denver International Airport and take you<br />
directly to your accommodation. Please arrive<br />
on the Saturday or Sunday before your start<br />
date when there will be <strong>INTO</strong> CSU staff at<br />
the airport to assist you.<br />
When booking your flights to Denver<br />
International Airport, please remember: you<br />
should arrive at least one day before your<br />
program start date (refer to brochure or I-20<br />
for start date) and arrive at the <strong>INTO</strong> CSU<br />
Center in Fort Collins by 8.00 am on your<br />
program start date.<br />
To book an airport transfer, send your arrival<br />
details to intoarrivals@colostate.edu at least<br />
seven days before you arrive. More details<br />
about airport transfer are on page 13. Even if<br />
you do not require a transfer, you must send<br />
us your arrival details so we can make sure<br />
everything is ready for your arrival at the<br />
<strong>INTO</strong> CSU Center.<br />
