Residence Hall Contracts and Rates

Important note

The cost of living rates have been approved for the 2024-25 academic year (prices are per student, per semester). 

The semester cost of living rate includes both housing and food, and is placed on the student's tuition and fees account at the Bursar's office prior to the start of each semester. Payment options/due dates can be found on their website.  

Reminder: The Residence halls are not open for winter break, unless assigned to break housing. If a student needs housing over winter break, they need to select it in their housing application. These students will be assigned to Reed Hall. 

Tuition and fees are just one part of the overall cost to attend CU Â鶹ӰԺ. The full cost of attendance for an academic year could include expenses such as on-campus housing and food, books and supplies, and items that are not billed by the university, such as personal expenses, transportation and medical insurance.
