*College Opportunity Fund (COF)
COF is a state-funded program that provides a per-credit subsidy for undergraduate residents attending state-supported and participating private colleges and universities. This money, referred to as the COF stipend, is applied to an in-state student’s tuition, provided the student applies for and authorizes its use. The college you are attending will receive the money and it will appear as a tuition credit on your bill. COF rates are set annually by the Colorado General Assembly. If you do not apply for COF funding, you are responsible for both the student share and the state share of all tuition and fees. (You need to apply for COF only once, and you must authorize its use.) Please review your bill each term to ensure your COF stipend has been correctly applied to your account. https://cof.college-assist.org
During the 2025-2026 academic year, some or all of the instructional formats may change due to an emergency situation affecting college operations, public safety, or public health, including the COVID-19 pandemic. Tuition and fees are charged at the beginning of the semester and will remain in place regardless of any changes in instructional format. Tuition and fees will not be refunded in the event the curriculum delivery format changes for any part of the 2025-2026 academic year.
