According to the U.S. Department of Education, educational programs that prepare students for gainful employment in a recognized occupation are subject to regulations published in the Federal Register (75 FR 66832). The regulations require that each program provide prospective students with the occupations the program prepares students to enter, on-time completion rates, tuition and fees for completing the program, placement rates among completers, and median debt incurred by completers. This page is intended to provide all the disclosure information for each program.
Updated: Spring 2013
*Tuition and Fees vary depending on term, enrolled credit hours, and residency. Students enrolled in main campus courses will pay the non-degree graduate with a bachelor's degree rate as posted on the bursar's website at www.uccs.edu/bursar. Students enrolling in extended studies courses will pay the tuition and fees associated with that particular course as posted on the Extended Studies website . Tuition rates are updated every year and are not known in advance of one year. Additional fees may apply and tuition rates may be changed by the Board of Regents. Thus, tuition & fees reported here show a minimum estimate based on Fall 2012 3-credit hour rate (projected for total hours required).
**None of the gainful employment programs have reached their normal time to completion, thus completion rates, placement rates, and debt incurred upon completion will be available for the first time in Spring 2014, which is two years after the earliest program had enrolled students.
