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.
Tuition is subject to Board of Governors' approval in early summer.
