After-Hours Access Application

After-hours access to the I2P Lab is a privilege. It is granted only to responsible, experienced users who have demonstrated safe and consistent use of the lab.

​

To qualify, applicants must:

  • Hold an active lab pass during the semester of application.

  • Have been a lab pass holder for at least one full semester.

  • Demonstrate proficiency by completing projects (instructions below): ​

  • Have no more than 1 strike on their account.

  • Pass a short quiz on troubleshooting, safety, and lab policies.

  • Sign the I2P After-Hours Access Agreement.

Notes:​

  • Meeting these requirements does not guarantee approval. Final decisions are made by lab leadership based on overall responsibility, demonstrated judgment, and lab needs.

  • If you do not currently qualify for after hours but require access due to work, family, and class commitments during lab open hours, please reach out to carolv@colostate.edu.​​​
