Undergraduate Programs Tuition

COF Stipend

Undergraduate Colorado resident students are eligible to receive a College Opportunity Fund (COF) stipend from the State of Colorado to apply toward tuition costs. To receive the COF stipend, students must apply at https://cof.college-assist.org AND authorize the university to request the funds EACH semester via the UCD Access student portal. For further information and restrictions please visit the College Opportunity Fund Website.

DISCLAIMER: In the undergraduate tuition rate tables, the "Resident after COF" is calculated by subtracting the COF Stipend (credit hours times COF amount per credit hour) from the Base Tuition. The "Resident after COF" is only applicable to those students who are eligible and have authorized COF for the corresponding number of credit hours.
