During the 2022-2023 academic year, Venture Grants will be eligible for travel that are able to follow the Colorado College Student Travel Policies. Testing upon return of an approved trip will continue under the college's testing protocols. Colorado College will examine approval for travel under both the Department of State and CDC travel advisories. Due to entry requirements and quarantine restrictions for unvaccinated travelers, we can only approve Venture Grant petitions that acknowledge vaccination requirements. If the state of the world changes, Venture Grants awarded may be canceled due to continued safety diligence and concerns.

Testing upon return to campus should continue under CC’s current testing protocol for vaccinated and unvaccinated students. All students must follow CDC guidance for travel. 

Please note that all students awarded a Venture Grant will be responsible for all applicable taxes and international taxes will be deducted before dispersal. 

To be eligible for a Venture Grant, students must be active at the time of their proposed project. Venture Grants are not available to alumni.
