Financial
Aid and Work Opportunities
Colorado
State University does not provide financial aid or scholarships for
undergraduate international students. Only students who
are US citizens or permanent residents are eligible for financial
aid. International students need to explore scholarships, loans and
sponsorship possibilities within their home countries; in addition,
you are encouraged to review the financing resources listed on the
Web Resources for Incoming International Students.
Students with
either the Student visa (F1) or scholar visa (J1) are allowed to
work on campus on a part-time basis (20 hours/week or less) while
school is in session and full-time (40 hours/week) during breaks,
as long as they maintain their F1/J1 status. There are a wide
variety of employment opportunities available on campus. Consult
the Student Employment office with Student Financial Services for
details.
