A college education is one of the most important investments that students and their families will make. It requires careful financial planning. While students and their families have the primary responsibility to pay for college, resources allow the Financial Aid Office to assist students to plan and finance these educational costs. Approximately 51 percent of CU-Colorado Springs students received some type of assistance. The Financial Aid Office makes every effort to ensure that students receive maximum consideration for all forms of aid.
Requests always exceed the funds available, therefore it is important to apply early.
It is also important to comply with Financial Aid Office requests for information on a timely basis.
