We’re here to help!

The Office of Financial Aid (OFA) is responsible for financial aid counseling and program administration of over $350 million in federal, state, institutional, and private financial aid funds. The department also provides merged customer service for university student billing and oversight for tuition classification, student employment operations, and the College Opportunity Fund. OFA provides support throughout the student lifecycle – our work is central to meeting enrollment goals of the institution and is performed with a commitment to equity, access, and success.

Colorado State University is Committed to Student Cost Transparency

CSU is committed to using the Principles & Standards of the College Cost Transparency Initiative in its student financial aid offer. Financial Aid offers will be available in RAMweb for students to view. Once a student’s offer has been generated, an e-mail will be sent to the student’s CSU email, stating the offer is available to be viewed.

Colorado Affordability and Promise Programs

Continuing education should be accessible to all, regardless of finances. That’s why the Colorado Department of Higher Education and public institutions, like Colorado State University, have partnered to share information on programs that help with tuition costs.

Colorado Promise: Beginning in Fall 2024, students who attend public institutions and have family incomes of $90,000 or less may be eligible for a complete reimbursement of any out-of-pocket tuition and fees paid for their education. The program expands on individual institutional promise programs and extends financial support to middle-income Colorado residents.
