Board Policy
The Colorado legislature allows for in-state tuition status to be granted to individuals who do not meet the presumptions of residency as described in CRS 23-7-103. The Board authorizes each CSU System institution to grant in-state tuition status as permitted by the following statutes:
- CRS 23-7-105 – Tuition classification for Olympic athletes;
- CRS 23-7-108.5(b) – Tuition classification of armed forces veterans (dependents);
- CRS 23-7-109 1 (a) and (b) – Tuition classification for employees or employees’ children of companies who move to Colorado (including faculty positions);
- CRS 23-7-111 – Tuition classification for persons who move to Colorado for employment.
It is the policy of the Board to grant in-state tuition status pursuant to CRS 23-7-108.5 (a) titled “Tuition classification of armed forces veterans” (otherwise known as the GI Promise ) to individuals who have been honorably discharged from the armed forces of the United States, who enroll in a CSU System institution and who meet, for any length of time, the presumption and rules for maintaining a domicile in Colorado described in section 23-7-103 and meet the requirements of section 108.5 (a).
It is the policy of the Board to grant in-state tuition status pursuant to CRS 23-7-108.6 titled “Tuition classification for veterans pursuant to federal law” (otherwise known as the Choice Act) to “covered individuals”, as defined in section 702 of the “Veterans Access, Choice and Accountability Act of 2014” and who meet the requirements of section 108.6 2 (a) and (b) and 108.6 3.
Each institution shall develop policy to verify the student’s specific situation as described in 23-7-109 and 23-7-111.
