A Message from the PresidentMay 2012 Tuition rates set In late April the Board of Regents set tuition rates for CU's campuses. Increases at Boulder, Colorado Springs and Denver all were at or below 5 percent. They were higher for some of the specialized programs on the Anschutz Medical Campus. CU's increases were the lowest among Colorado's public four-year institutions. When added to the slight increases in room and board rates, the total cost of attendance at CU rose less than 3 percent. We were able to keep increases in check due to a confluence of factors: our state budget cut was less than we expected early in the legislative session (it ended up to be about a $5.8 million reduction), our focus on operational efficiencies, increased public-private partnerships, and legislation the past few years that has allowed us to improve our business practices. Additionally, the Board of Regents had a good discussion about tuition before unanimously arriving at the rates cited above. The board, like all of us at CU, is working to find the balance between ensuring a quality education and keeping the cost of an education affordable. Make a difference. Give today!
