Aims Community College strongly believes all Colorado students should have every opportunity to pursue a higher education degree or certificate. 

To support this mission, the Aims Tuition Promise program will cover tuition for any Colorado resident with either:

  • A family Adjusted Gross Income under $65,000
  • An independent student (typically over the age of 24) Adjusted Gross Income under $50,000

How It Works

An affordable education is possible at Aims. The Aims Tuition Promise program applies to Fall and Spring semesters each academic year. Aims will factor in a combination of federal, state, institutional aid and any other scholarships to pay your tuition. After those programs are applied, Aims will make up the difference.
