Colorado Promise
Colorado Promise provides students with tuition and fees for their first two years of college in the form of a yearly refundable tax credit if they have a family income of $90,000 or less.
Starting in fall 2024, students who enroll in a qualifying program will have tuition and fees covered in the form of a tax credit, after scholarships and grants, and can begin claiming the credit on their 2025 taxes.
As this is a tax credit, students are required to first pay for their tuition and fees upfront and can then request reimbursement through a tax credit when they file taxes for the year.
