If you are a Fort Collins resident and non-student looking to register you can give us a call at 970-491-2248 or email us at ocl@colostate.edu and we will help you through the process. Party registration resets every August and you’ll have to register with us for your first party of the academic year.
To register a party with Off-Campus Life please stop by our office during business hours, Monday through Friday between 9:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. You can register a party for any day of the week, but only during the hours listed above. Registration must take place by 5:00 P.M. the Thursday before your party.
The purpose of the Party Registration program is to provide party hosts with an opportunity to receive a warning, providing a 20-minute window to voluntarily terminate a party after a noise complaint has been received. The information that you provide while registering your party will be sent to Fort Collins Police Services Dispatch prior to the party. If an unreasonable noise complaint is called in regarding your party, dispatch will call both you and your alternate notifying you of this and giving you a 20-minute warning to shut down your party. This 20-minute window will start at the time of the phone call to you, whether it is answered or not. Please note that the 20-minute warning is only implemented for unreasonable noise, not nuisance complaints. Furthermore, if another complaint is called into dispatch after the 20-minute window, a police officer will be sent out to your address.
