Tuition Tables

Tuition per Semester, fall 2013 through spring 2014

(For planning purposes only. Rates for 2014–15 were not available at time of publication. Tuition charged is affected by residency status, degree, and number of credit hours. Dual degrees are charged at the higher of the two rates.) Tuition and fee rates are determined by the Board of Regents prior to fall of each academic year. Check the Bursar's Office website for the most current tuition rates. These rates apply to the Boulder campus only.

Undergraduate Tuition 

IN-STATE Tuition

The state of Colorado provides direct funding to in-state undergraduate students through the College Opportunity Fund (COF). In the Undergraduate Tuition table below, the amount shown in boldface was the in-state tuition for those receiving the COF voucher ($64 per credit hour for academic year 2013–14). The amount in parentheses was the tuition for those who did not apply for the COF stipend. The COF stipend amount is subject to legislative change every year. See Colorado Opportunity Fund in this section. For undergraduate and graduate mandatory fees, see Fees

For credit hours over 18, add $64 per credit hour. COF remains the same.
