Colorado Residency

Tuition classification determines student residency for tuition purposes. Your initial tuition classification is determined from information you supply on your application for admission to the MBA听Program.听US citizens and Permanent Residents who are not initially Colorado residents can establish residency during the first year of the program. In doing so, you would qualify in-state tuition during the second year of the program. That is an advantage not offered by many public institutions, and will significantly increase the return on the investment for non-Colorado residents.听Click here to learn more about Tuition Classification.听If you have additional questions, you can email听tuitclass@colorado.edu听or call听303-492-6970.
