The University of Colorado Board of Regents voted to approve tuition changes during an April 8 regular meeting.

The board voted 6-2 to approve tuition increases on CU campuses for the 2021-22 academic year. The regents approved a 3% tuition increase for all undergraduate, graduate, resident, and nonresident students. However, students will not be responsible for the additional tuition costs. Instead, CU will cover these costs using federal funds to provide a one-time institutional credit to all students in the amount of the tuition increase for academic year 2021-22. The details are still being worked out but students should expect to see the full tuition charge along with a credit in the amount of the increase.

CU Denver will continue to invest in student support, mental health resources, and career readiness initiatives that are in great demand by its students. The federal funds will help  maintain CU Denver’s investment in institutional financial aid, which has grown by $5 million since fiscal year 2017-18, and enable the university to restore some operating cuts necessitated by the pandemic. 

CU Denver will continue to offer our existing financial aid programs, which are designed to help make a CU education as affordable as possible.
