Undergraduate Grants

ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï provides grants to eligible undergraduate students as part of their financial aid offer. Grants are free money and do not have to be repaid.

How to Apply

Students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year to be considered. Grant funding is limited and is not guaranteed; it is provided on a first-come, first-served basis.

Grant Eligibility

Grants are offered to students who have significant financial need as determined by information on the FAFSA, as well as information submitted to and verified by ºÚÁϳԹÏ's Office of Financial Aid. Grant availability is based on funding at the time the grant is offered. A student may be offered one grant, or a combination of different types of grants. However, it's not possible for a student to receive all the grants we offer, even with exceptional need.

Ìý

ÌýÌý ÌýWhat's considered significant financial need?
In previous years, Colorado residents with an 18,000 Student Aid Index (SAI) or less were more likely to be considered for grants than a family with a higher SAI. The SAIÌýis a formula calculated by the FAFSA which helps schools determine financial aid eligibility.

Types of Grants

We offer the following types of grants:

Federal Grants

All students are considered for federal grants, such as the Pell Grant.

State Grants

If a student is a Colorado resident, we consider them for state grants.

ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï Grants

CU Promise
