Financing your degree doesn't have to be overwhelming. Understanding tuition, fees and the total cost of attendance (COA) is the first step toward planning a clear path for your adult undergraduate or graduate education. With transparent information, you can make informed decisions and focus on achieving your goals.
Here at Regis, our financial aid team will guide you through your options to help make your program affordable and manageable. Whether you're earning your degree through an accelerated, evening or online program, Regis is committed to keeping education flexible, accessible and sustainable – so you can invest in your future without putting your life on hold.
Tuition for accelerated, evening, or online undergraduate and graduate programs is charged per credit hour and varies by program. Required fees, books and materials depend on your area of study, and many students manage their own housing and living expenses. This flexibility allows you to plan your educational investment in a way that fits your schedule, budget and personal needs.

Students should also consider additional expenses associated with attending Regis University. Direct costs, such as on-campus housing, meal plans and certain university or program fees, are determined annually by Regis University. Indirect expenses, including living off campus, books, supplies and personal expenses, are not billed by the University. Estimates for these indirect costs are based on guidelines from the Colorado Department of Higher Education. Figures are subject to change.

Every student who applies for financial aid is assigned a cost of attendance (COA). COA gives you an estimate of the cost of attending Regis University for one year, and your COA sets a limit on the amount of financial aid you can receive during the academic year (per federal regulations).
Your actual expenses may be different from those listed on your financial aid offer, and the total amount of your aid — including scholarships, grants, loans and work-study — can't exceed your total cost of attendance.
Direct costs are determined by Regis University.
For indirect costs, we use recommended guidelines published by the Colorado Department of Higher Education. Most figures change slightly every year.
To stay in compliance with federal regulations, we cannot change student COA based on discretionary expenses. We may be able to adjust your COA for reasons outlined on the Cost of Attendance Appeal Form. Decisions are made on a case-by-case basis and do not guarantee additional financial aid.
For traditional students, your COA does not include costs for the summer semester. Eligibility for financial aid for the summer is limited; if you need financial aid for the summer, you must complete a separate summer aid application in the spring.
For non-traditional students, we typically include all three semesters in your COA: summer, fall and spring, but we can always update your enrollment plans and, therefore, your COA when you submit the Enrollment and Loan Revision Form.
Location: Clarke Hall 143
Walk-In Hours: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 9 a.m.–4 p.m.
Financial Aid Counselors are not available for walk-ins on Wednesdays. Appointments are encouraged.
