Financial Aid
Prospective ISP applicants are encouraged to consult the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus Office of Financial Aid. Acceptance into the ISP program is not a guarantee of eligibility for financial aid. Financial aid is awarded on the basis of financial need to eligible students who are U.S. Citizens or eligible non-citizens. You may download the latest version of FAFSA Express from the US Department of Education. FAFSA Express enables you to complete the Free Application for Financial Student Aid electronically.
It is important to know that all applicants to the ISP program are considered for admission regardless of their financial circumstances. Financial aid is awarded on the basis of financial need as long as the student is a United States citizen or an eligible non-citizen. The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus Office of Financial Aid staff conducts a financial aid needs analysis and provides comprehensive guidance for students applying for financial aid. They may be contacted at 303-315-8364, or on the web at: Student Financial Services.

Projected Tuition
Upon notification of acceptance into the program, applicants are required to submit a nonrefundable $4,000 enrollment fee as directed in the acceptance letter. The fee will be applied to the first semester tuition upon enrollment at the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine. Financial aid does not cover the application fee or the non-refundable $4,000 deposit. First semester tuition is due and payable 60 days before the day of matriculation. Subsequent payment of tuition is due by the first day of each semester and is prerequisite for registration and continued enrollment.
Living Expenses
Living expenses are calculated on the basis of a single student living in housing near the school. This includes rent (with roommate), utility, and food. Since the ISP program is an accelerated program, it is recommended that students live close to the School of Dental Medicine.
Health Insurance
ISP students are required to acquire and maintain a health insurance policy for the duration of their attendance at the School of Dental Medicine. At this time the school has not identified a medical insurance carrier; please purchase the health insurance on your own.
All students are to adhere to immunization requirements.
