Tuition and Fees

Colorado residency status is not a factor in determining online, distance, or off-campus tuition rates, however, residency status is a factor in determining tuition rates for some on-campus credit courses. Tuition assessed through CSU Online is in addition to any other tuition assessed by the University.

FA24 tuition rates will be updated in Summer after the Board of Governors' meeting and approval.
