Types of Tuition

In-State Tuition is typically lower for students who qualify, as an incentive to encourage Colorado Residents to take advantage of Colorado colleges and universities.

You may be granted In-State tuition if you have lived in Colorado for 12 months prior to your first day of college and you meet the following criteria:

• Payment of Colorado Income tax

• Possession of a Colorado Drivers Lisence

• Colorado Motor Vehicle Registration

• Voter Registration

• Permanent employment

• Ownership of a residential property that is your primary residence

• Graduation from a Colorado High School

• Continued Residence in Colorado other than just throughout the academic year.

If under 23, classification for in-state tuition is based upon your parent/legal guardian.
