A Colorado College education — made more accessible.

At Colorado College, we believe a world-class liberal arts education should be within reach for students across the Southwest. 

The Four Corners Pledge expands our commitment to affordability, building on the success of the Colorado Pledge. For qualifying families in Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah, the cost of attending CC is designed to be comparable to the region’s top public universities. 

If your family’s adjusted gross income is under $250,000 and your assets are typical for your income level, you may qualify. 

There is no separate application for the pledge. Simply complete the FAFSA and CSS Profile, and Colorado College will determine your eligibility as part of your financial aid award. 

And if your demonstrated financial need exceeds the Four Corners Pledge amount, you will receive the larger financial aid award — ensuring your family receives the greatest support possible.
