College Opportunity Fund (COF)
The College Opportunity Fund (COF) is for undergraduates and is a state-funded program that provides a per-credit subsidy for residents attending state-supported and participating private colleges and universities. This money, referred to as the COF stipend, is applied to an in-state student’s tuition, provided the student applies for and authorizes its use. The college you are attending will receive the money and it will appear as a tuition credit on your bill. COF rates are set annually by the Colorado General Assembly. If you do not apply for and authorize its use, you are responsible for both the student share and the state share of all tuition and fees. Please view your tuition bill each term to ensure the COF stipend has been correctly applied to your account. Apply online during the college application process or by going to www.rrcc.edu/college-opportunity-fund and clicking on "Sign up here!." Be sure to authorize COF when you register for your classes.
