About CSU Global

About Us

CSU Global is proud to be part of a state university system that you recognize and trust—and that employers recognize and trust, too.

CSU Global is the first independent, fully-accredited, 100% online state university established in the country. But that’s not the only thing that sets us apart. We’re part of the renowned Colorado State University System, Colorado’s federally-designated Land Grant, which includes the flagship Colorado State University in Fort Collins and the Colorado State University-Pueblo institutions. Each of the three campuses is indepently-accredited and operationally separate with its own distinct mission, but are all governed by the same CSU System Board of Governors.

This means that as a student of CSU Global, you’ll benefit from the resources, research, and partnerships of the larger, state-coordinated entity. Together, all three schools in the Colorado State University System serve 37,000 new and returning scholars annually, with graduates numbering 7,000 per year and with more than 200,000 alumni around the world.

Why CSU Global?

Committed to Student Success

“Since the beginning, CSU Global has been a trailblazer in meeting the needs of nontraditional learners toward their personal and professional goals while facilitating industry and workforce success. I am honored to continue this mission of serving students where they live and work, and helping them advance their skills, abilities, and knowledge through industry-focused programs and dedicated faculty that work to prepare learners for in-demand jobs to facilitate organizational competitiveness.”

CSU Global President Dr. Becky Takeda-Tinker

Flexible and Convenient

The CSU Global model inherently offers both flexibility and convenience, allowing modern learners to earn a degree at their own pace, on their own terms. We understand that not every student can put his or her life on hold when making the decision to go back to college. That’s why, at CSU Global, our classes are 100% online, without fixed schedules.

We also provide support for every step of the academic journey, from our streamlined admissions process to our knowledgeable Student Success Counselors, who are available to answer questions. Classes begin every four weeks, allowing modern learners to embark on their paths to academic success with minimal delay.

Affordable

At Colorado State University Global, we believe higher education should be available and affordable to all. That’s why we pioneered public, all-online degrees that meet people where they are, offering the flexibility needed to balance education with other commitments. And that’s why we offer a tuition guarantee that’s second to none.

Once enrolled at CSU Global, we guarantee your tuition rate stays the same from your first class to your last. What’s more, unlike the majority of four-year accredited universities, CSU Global charges $0 in student fees — no out-of-state fees, athletic fees, per-credit fees, or any other hidden charges. Ranked among the best by U.S. News and World Report, our online university helps you turn aspirations into outcomes without surprises or unnecessary costs.

Our goal is to help modern learners earn degrees affordably and prepare for tomorrow’s jobs.

CSU Global Diploma

The degree you earn from CSU Global is conferred by the Colorado State University System Board of Governors, and your diploma features both the system name and CSU Global seal along with your degree program.

We are proud to be a part of the Colorado State University System, and we know that you will be too.
