Colorado ASSET Bill

Senate Bill 13-033, also known as the Colorado ASSET Bill, allows U.S. Citizens, Permanent Residents, and students without lawful status to receive in-state tuition through attendance and graduation from a Colorado high school or through attendance at a Colorado high school combined with obtaining the GED. Students may gain residency through meeting these requirements.

To qualify for Colorado ASSET in-state tuition, a student must:

Graduated from a Colorado high school or was physically present in Colorado for at least one year immediately preceding the date the student successfully completed a high school equivalency examination in Colorado; and
Has been physically present in Colorado for at least 12 consecutive months prior to enrolling in an institution.
There is no longer a requirement for the student to be admitted to college within 12 months of graduation.
