For families earning $110k+, the average net price here is above the $25,500 a first-year dependent student and their parents can borrow federally from 1 July 2026, by up to $4,263. That part has to come from savings, income, work, or private loans.
The ceiling is $5,500 in the student’s own Direct Loan plus up to $20,000 in Parent PLUS, which requires that the parent has no adverse credit history. Net prices are averages for a prior cohort of aid recipients, not a quote. Source: Federal Student Aid loan limits. Where this gap is largest.

FAFSA earnings check
: Not flaggedColorado State University-Fort Collins does not trigger the FAFSA's "lower earnings" notice. Its graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $71,618, above the $39,622 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Colorado.
This is one figure for the whole institution, not for any program: earnings differ by credential and field. It covers graduates who completed in 2017-18 and 2018-19, received federal aid, and were working and not enrolled when earnings were measured in 2022 and 2023, in January 2026 dollars. The Department says the notice is informational only: it does not change aid eligibility. Source: U.S. Department of Education, FSA Data Center, March 2026 release.

Academics
Studying online: a substantial share study entirely online
In Fall 2023, 4,497 of Colorado State University-Fort Collins's 33,500 students (13%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 7,469 (22%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.
Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.

Frequently asked questions
About Colorado State University-Fort Collins
Built from CampusPin profile data. Always verify final admissions, cost, financial aid, and program details with the institution before applying. See our data methodology and data dictionary.
- Where is Colorado State University-Fort Collins located?
- Colorado State University-Fort Collins is located in Fort Collins, CO, in the United States.
- What type of institution is Colorado State University-Fort Collins?
- Colorado State University-Fort Collins is a public university based in CO. CampusPin classifies institutions as either four-year universities or two-year community colleges, with control labeled public or private.
- What is the acceptance rate at Colorado State University-Fort Collins?
- The most recently reported acceptance rate at Colorado State University-Fort Collins is approximately 89% (IPEDS, applicants for fall 2024). Acceptance rate signals selectivity but does not predict any individual applicant's outcome and is not a measure of school quality. CampusPin reports the federally-published value; verify the current cycle with the institution.
- What is the tuition at Colorado State University-Fort Collins?
- Colorado State University-Fort Collins's published in-state tuition is approximately $13,373 per year (IPEDS, charges for academic year 2024-25). This is the published price before financial aid; the net price most students actually pay is typically lower. Verify the current academic-year tuition with the institution before applying.
- How many students attend Colorado State University-Fort Collins?
- Colorado State University-Fort Collins reports total enrollment of approximately 34,096 students (undergraduate plus graduate) (IPEDS, fall 2024 enrollment). Total enrollment is a useful sizing signal, see the institutional profile for additional breakdowns when available.
- How much does Colorado State University-Fort Collins actually cost after financial aid?
- The average net price at Colorado State University-Fort Collins is approximately $21,279 per year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus grants and scholarships that never have to be repaid, so it is what students actually paid rather than the published sticker price. What families pay varies with income: students from families earning under $30,000 paid about $13,259 on average, and those from families earning $110,000 or more about $29,763. These are averages for students who received federal aid in a prior cohort, not a quote for any individual family. Run the institution's own Net Price Calculator for a figure specific to you.
- What is the graduation rate at Colorado State University-Fort Collins?
- Colorado State University-Fort Collins reports a graduation rate of approximately 67% (IPEDS, Graduation Rates 2024 collection: 4-year cohort 2018, 2-year cohort 2021). This measures the share of a prior entering cohort who completed their degree within the federal tracking window. It reflects who enrolls as much as what the institution does, so it is not on its own a measure of teaching quality, and it is not comparable across institutions serving very different students.
- How much student debt do graduates of Colorado State University-Fort Collins have?
- Students who borrowed at Colorado State University-Fort Collins left with a median of approximately $20,000 in federal loans, and about 32% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.
- How much do graduates of Colorado State University-Fort Collins earn?
- Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $60,543 for students who received federal financial aid at Colorado State University-Fort Collins. This reflects the mix of programs the institution offers and the students who enroll, not the effect of attending, and it covers aid recipients rather than all graduates.
- How should I verify final details about Colorado State University-Fort Collins?
- CampusPin compiles institutional data from public datasets like IPEDS and the College Scorecard, plus institutional websites and editorial review. Before applying, paying a deposit, or making a final decision, confirm admissions requirements, current tuition, financial aid, deadlines, and program details directly with Colorado State University-Fort Collins.

One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $54,846; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth.

One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $32,958; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $21,500 in federal loans at this college (about $228 a month on a 10-year plan), and had $23,009 in total federal debt including other colleges attended (same degree level).

That order is one federal measure, not a ranking of program quality: earnings reflect the field and where graduates go to work as well as the program.
- Does Colorado State University-Fort Collins get a "lower earnings" warning on the FAFSA?
- No. In the Department of Education's March 2026 data, which the FAFSA uses now, Colorado State University-Fort Collins's graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $71,618, above the $39,622 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Colorado, so first-year students who list it do not see the lower-earnings notice. The figure describes the whole institution, not any one program.
