Financial Aid

Campus Visitors Notice

Colorado College is excited to welcome visitors to campus. We are prioritizing initiatives that serve our students, academic programming, and visiting prospective students and families.

Colorado College views the financial aid process as a partnership between students, parents, and the institution. Many families are able to afford Colorado College with the combination of grants, modest loans, reasonable work opportunities, and family resources.

We meet 100% of your family's eligibility for need-based financial aid at Colorado College, using a combination of donor-funded scholarships and campus grants, federal loans and work-study options when you complete the financial aid application process by posted deadlines.
