Tuition, fees covered for Southern Ute students under partnership with tribe

Andrea Bean, a rising junior and member of the Southern Ute Tribe, was attracted to CU Boulder because of the vast opportunities and the environment on campus. But she faced a common problem: How to pay for it. For members of the Southern Ute tribe, some financial barriers are eased with a revived partnership with the Southern Ute Department of Education that funds tuition and mandatory student fees for up to four Southern Ute students per year starting this fall.
