Hello, I'm a Colorado resident and very interested in the University of Colorado Boulder. I'm trying to figure out my budget. Does anyone know approximately what the in-state tuition there looks like?
Hello! As of the 2024-2025 academic year, in-state tuition at the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) is approximately $14,000 per year. Keep in mind that this amount is for tuition only and does not include other costs such as room, board, or books, which can add substantially to your overall costs. Always make sure to look at the full cost of attendance, not just tuition, when planning for college expenses.
Note that these amounts can vary from year to year due to increases in operating costs and changes in state funding for higher education. So, while this current figure can give you a baseline, you may want to anticipate a slight increase each year.
Lastly, don't forget about applying for financial aid and scholarships! CU Boulder offers a wide range of institutional scholarships for residents. You should also submit your FAFSA, as you might qualify for federal or state grants, which do not need to be repaid.
