Non-resident MBA Estimated Expenses
US citizens and permanent residents who are not Colorado residents can establish residency during the first year of the program and qualify for in-state tuition for the second year of the program. That is an advantage not offered by many public institutions, and will significantly increase the return on the investment for non-Colorado residents.
Information related to establishing Colorado residency is available from the Tuition Classification Office.
The budget below is prepared by the Office of Financial Aid and includes tuition and fees, along with estimated living expenses and other costs, in an attempt to represent the full cost of attendance for the academic year.
