Estimates for In-State Tuition
There are a lot of student-related factors that go into determining costs. Please contact Allie Dirks at 303-605-5439 or adirks2@msudenver.edu with questions about your specific situation. The estimates shown below are for students who are eligible for both in-state tuition and the College Opportunity Fund.
Shown Estimates are based on the following:
1. Course Calendar
Even if you have the time to be in school full time right now, this certificate program does not offer a full time schedule of courses. We do make courses available so that you can complete the undergraduate program in 1.5 to 2 years, and the post-baccalaureate program in 2 years.
2. College Opportunity Fund Availability
You may or may not have access to these funds, which substantially reduce your tuition. As an undergraduate student, you qualify for these funds for up to 145 credit hours. If you've already taken 145 credit hours worth of undergraduate courses, you can appeal for up to an additional year of funding. Please contact Allie Dirks at 303-605-5439 or adirks2@msudenver.edu with questions about your eligibility for COF.
