Scholarships and Financial Aid

FINANCIAL AID FOR COLLEGE INFORMATION
(FAFSA/COF/WICHE)

Completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid is the first step toward getting federal aid for college, career school, or graduate school.  FAFSA opens up October 1st and should be completed yearly starting your senior year.

The College Opportunity Fund (COF), created by the Colorado Legislature, provides a stipend to eligible undergraduate students. The stipend pays a portion of your total in-state tuition when you attend a participating college. Students who are residents of WICHE states are eligible to request a reduced tuition rate of 150% of resident tuition at participating two- and four-year college programs outside of their home state.
