Financial Aid Information

Colorado Technical University is committed to assisting students in developing financial plans to achieve their educational goals. We realize that how to pay for an education is an important decision. Therefore, we strive to provide our students with the information, support and assistance they need to receive the maximum financial aid for which they qualify.

Types of Financial Aid

Students who are accepted for enrollment at Colorado Technical University may qualify for financial assistance if their personal financial resources are unable to meet the full cost of their education. Alternative financing options are also available to those who qualify.

CTU participates in many federal and state financial aid programs. We encourage students to visit www.ed.gov/studentaid to obtain a copy of "The Student Guide," which explains these programs in detail.

The three basic types of federal financial aid that may be available to students who qualify include:

• Grants/Scholarships
  This assistance is a type you do not repay, such as the Federal Pell Grant Program.
• Loans
  Loans are assistance you do repay, like the Federal Stafford Loan.
• Earned Assistance
  This financial assistance is a type you can earn through your work, such as the Federal Work-Study Program.

Many employers also offer the benefit of tuition reimbursement to help students pay for their degree programs.

If you are accepted for enrollment, a CTU Financial Aid Representative can explain the resources to you.
