CC Financial Aid & You: Partnership for Success
Many families are able to afford Colorado College by utilizing a combination of grants, modest loans, student work opportunities, and family resources. We offer advice on budgeting, parent loans, and other financial options for all families.
CC meets 100% of demonstrated financial need based on FAFSA and CSS Profile results. We do so using a combination of donor-funded scholarships and campus grants, student loans and work-study options.

* The college’s actual annual cost of educating a student at Colorado College is higher than our tuition. However, income from our endowment and from gifts and grants subsidizes that amount, even for students who do not receive financial aid. For students eligible for financial aid, scholarship and grants further reduce the costs to students and their families.
* Non-Degree Seeking Students: Rate per block for 2024-25 is $11,789.
