Financial Assistance
Financial Aid is available for those who qualify. Colorado Technical University participates in a variety of financial aid programs for the benefit of students. Students must meet the eligibility requirements of these programs in order to participate. Colorado Technical University administers its financial aid programs in accordance with prevailing federal and state laws and its own institutional policies. It is recommended that students apply for financial aid as early as possible in order to allow sufficient time for application processing. Financial aid must be approved, and all necessary documentation completed, before the aid can be applied toward tuition and fees. Students may have to apply for financial aid more than once during the calendar year, depending on their date of enrollment.
Federal and private loans, both for students and parents, are generally disbursed in three equal installments during an academic year aligned to the students’ academic quarter/term. Federal, state, and institutional grants/scholarships are generally disbursed in six installments during an academic year aligned to the students’ academic session and enrollment status. Any other outside fund sources are disbursed in accordance to the agency’s terms and conditions.
Please note, eligibility and disbursement amounts are subject to change due to enrollment status, course attendance, satisfactory academic progress, and general financial aid eligibility. Student who need additional information and guidance should contact the Financial Aid Office.
